Maybe your old mattress is a pain in the neck (or back), or maybe you’re looking at the mattresses San Diego has available to make sure your house is ready to receive guests this holiday season. Whatever has you in the market for a new bed, remember to prioritize your own sleep with a quality mattress. There are some surprising benefits to getting a healthy night of zzz’s:
Less Inflammation
Inflammation in the body can be a good thing, when your body is trying to kick a virus and you run a temperature or when your body is healing a cut. But when the body experiences long-term or chronic inflammation, it can cause pain, the breakdown of certain tissues, and even hormonal imbalances. Your body expects you to get 7-9 hours of sleep every night, during which time it repairs your tissues and resets your hormones. Getting enough sleep can minimize your inflammation, which in turn can improve everything from weight loss efforts to arthritis pain.
Get Smarter
Did you know that you’re smarter when you’re well-rested? People know that if they’re feeling exhausted they have difficulty with precise mental tasks like math or puzzle solving. But few people realize that lack of sleep can also impact your willpower, decision-making ability, and even your food cravings. Do you want to be at your best for a difficult meeting? Then make sure that you get your rest the night before.
