News3 Of The Easiest Ways To De-Puff Your Eyes
Sometimes no amount of rest or healthy eating can prevent under-eye puffiness but there are a few ways to get rid of it. Here are three of the best and easiest ways to de-puff your eyes: 1. Cold Spoons. Place two clean teaspoons in your freezer. The next time you have puffy eyes simply take them out of the fridge, run them under water and apply them to the under-eye area. This will help constrict the blood vessels and reduce inflammation in the under-eye area. 2. Eye Roller. Ice rollers or jade rollers are great for puffiness as they can help to improve lymphatic drainage. Be careful not to overuse a face roller in this area as overuse could cause wrinkles and discoloration. 3. Gentle Massage. The easiest method is to tap or massage the area at the pressure points that will encourage lymphatic drainage.
NewsRecovering From A Lack Of Sleep Takes Longer Than You Think
Sleep problems are a global epidemic that threatens the health of up to 45% of the world’s population. But it’s easy to recover from that sleep deficit, right, especially if you’re young? Unfortunately, a study has revealed that may not be the case, even for younger people. People in their 20s who slept less than they needed for 10 nights needed over a week to fully recover their cognitive processing. Reaction times returned to baseline levels, while other cognitive tasks including accuracy did not completely recover, Dr. Bhanu Prakash Kolla, a sleep medicine specialist in the Center for Sleep Medicine in Minnesota. The study showed that memory and mental processing speed cannot be restored quickly. A chronic lack of sleep impacts your ability to pay attention, learn new things, be creative, solve problems and make decisions. Disrupted sleep is associated with high blood pressure, weakened immune performance, weight gain, mood swings and depression. Experts argue that we need to prioritize sleep and try and get at least seven hours each night. You can set yourself up for good sleep by not smoking and keeping your alcohol intake to a minimum. Eating a well-balanced diet, getting regular exercise and staying mentally active will improve sleep as well.
