Endocrinologist Zuhra Pavlova said that fruits and vegetables help to invigorate after a sleepless night. She suggested a way to mitigate the effects of lack of sleep without coffee in her Telegram channel.
The specialist pointed out that fruits and vegetables contain many vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, thanks to which they quickly restore energy, especially if the body is weakened by lack of sleep.
According to the doctor, the invigorating properties of plant foods have been proven in a study in which young people from Europe, New Zealand and the USA were asked to keep a diary of activity and mood. Observations show that sleep has the greatest impact on emotional state, but fruits and vegetables can also lift your mood and compensate for lack of sleep.
“After a sleepless night, you shouldn't save yourself with caffeine and sweets - they definitely won't help. But a plate of fresh fruit or salad will provide you with real support“, the doctor is sure.
