महत्वपूर्ण स्वास्थ्य में नींद की भूमिका: अपनी नींद की गुणवत्ता में सुधार कैसे करें

Table of content

हमारी तेज़-तर्रार दुनिया में, जहाँ माँगें और ध्यान भटकाने वाली चीज़ें कभी न ख़त्म होने वाली हैं, नींद अक्सर पीछे छूट जाती है। बहुत से लोग नींद को एक विलासिता के रूप में देखते हैं जिसे वे वहन नहीं कर सकते, यह उनके व्यस्त जीवन में एक वैकल्पिक अतिरिक्त चीज़ है। हालाँकि, यह सच्चाई से अधिक दूर नहीं हो सकता। नींद सिर्फ निष्क्रियता की अवधि नहीं है; यह एक महत्वपूर्ण और सक्रिय प्रक्रिया है जो हमारे समग्र स्वास्थ्य में मौलिक भूमिका निभाती है। इस ब्लॉग पोस्ट में, हम महत्वपूर्ण स्वास्थ्य को बनाए रखने में नींद के महत्वपूर्ण महत्व का पता लगाएंगे और आपकी नींद की गुणवत्ता में सुधार करने के बारे में व्यावहारिक सुझाव प्रदान करेंगे।

नींद के महत्व को समझना:

आपके स्वास्थ्य में नींद की भूमिका की सही मायने में सराहना करने के लिए, यह पहचानना आवश्यक है कि यह केवल बेहोशी की स्थिति नहीं है। नींद के दौरान, कई जटिल और महत्वपूर्ण प्रक्रियाएँ होती हैं। यहाँ बताया गया है कि नींद इतनी महत्वपूर्ण क्यों है:

शारीरिक बहाली: नींद वह समय है जब आपका शरीर महत्वपूर्ण मरम्मत और बहाली में संलग्न होता है। इस चरण के दौरान ऊतकों का विकास होता है और मांसपेशियों की मरम्मत होती है, जो शारीरिक स्वास्थ्य को बनाए रखने के लिए आवश्यक है।

मानसिक कायाकल्प: नींद आपके मस्तिष्क के लिए दिन के दौरान प्राप्त जानकारी को संसाधित करने और समेकित करने का अवसर है। यह न केवल याददाश्त बढ़ाता है बल्कि संज्ञानात्मक कार्य और भावनात्मक कल्याण का भी समर्थन करता है।

हार्मोन विनियमन: नींद हार्मोन को विनियमित करने में महत्वपूर्ण भूमिका निभाती है जो तनाव, भूख, विकास और विभिन्न अन्य आवश्यक शारीरिक कार्यों को नियंत्रित करती है।

प्रतिरक्षा प्रणाली समर्थन: गुणवत्तापूर्ण नींद एक मजबूत प्रतिरक्षा प्रणाली की आधारशिला है। यह आपके शरीर को संक्रमणों और बीमारियों से बचाने में मदद करता है।

ऊर्जा बहाली: एक अच्छी रात की नींद आपकी ऊर्जा के स्तर को फिर से भर देती है, जिससे यह सुनिश्चित होता है कि आप तरोताजा और सतर्क महसूस करते हुए जागते हैं।

सामान्य नींद संबंधी विकार:

इससे पहले कि हम नींद की गुणवत्ता में सुधार के लिए रणनीतियों पर विचार करें, यह स्वीकार करना महत्वपूर्ण है कि नींद से संबंधित कुछ समस्याएं अंतर्निहित नींद संबंधी विकारों के कारण हो सकती हैं। कुछ सामान्य नींद संबंधी विकारों में शामिल हैं:

अनिद्रा: सोने या सोते रहने में कठिनाई की विशेषता, जिसके परिणामस्वरूप अक्सर नींद की गुणवत्ता खराब होती है।

स्लीप एपनिया: यह एक ऐसी स्थिति है जहां नींद के दौरान किसी व्यक्ति की सांस बार-बार रुकती और शुरू होती है, जिससे नींद का पैटर्न बाधित होता है।

रेस्टलेस लेग सिंड्रोम: इस स्थिति वाले लोग अक्सर अपने पैरों में असुविधाजनक संवेदनाओं का अनुभव करते हैं, जिससे उन्हें हिलाने की इच्छा होती है, जो नींद में बाधा उत्पन्न कर सकती है।

नार्कोलेप्सी: एक तंत्रिका संबंधी विकार जिसके परिणामस्वरूप दिन में अत्यधिक नींद आती है और दिन के दौरान अचानक, अनियंत्रित नींद आती है।

यदि आपको संदेह है कि आपको नींद संबंधी विकार हो सकता है, तो एक स्वास्थ्य देखभाल पेशेवर से परामर्श करना महत्वपूर्ण है जो उचित निदान प्रदान कर सकता है और उचित उपचार विकल्पों की सिफारिश कर सकता है।

बेहतर नींद के लिए टिप्स:

अब जब हमने नींद के महत्व को स्थापित कर लिया है और संभावित नींद संबंधी विकारों को स्वीकार कर लिया है, तो आइए आपकी नींद की गुणवत्ता को बढ़ाने के लिए व्यावहारिक रणनीतियों का पता लगाएं:

नींद के लिए अनुकूल वातावरण बनाएं: आपका शयनकक्ष आरामदायक, अंधेरा और शांत होना चाहिए। आरामदायक गद्दे और तकिए में निवेश करने से महत्वपूर्ण अंतर आ सकता है।

एक सतत नींद कार्यक्रम स्थापित करें: हर दिन एक ही समय पर बिस्तर पर जाएं और जागें, यहां तक ​​कि सप्ताहांत पर भी। यह स्थिरता आपके शरीर की आंतरिक घड़ी को विनियमित करने में मदद करती है।

सोने से पहले स्क्रीन टाइम सीमित करें: स्मार्टफोन और कंप्यूटर जैसे इलेक्ट्रॉनिक उपकरणों से निकलने वाली नीली रोशनी आपके सोने-जागने के चक्र में बाधा डाल सकती है। सोने से कम से कम एक घंटे पहले स्क्रीन से दूर रहने की सलाह दी जाती है।

अपने आहार पर ध्यान दें: सोने से ठीक पहले बड़ा या भारी भोजन आपकी नींद में खलल डाल सकता है। कैफीन और अल्कोहल का सेवन कम मात्रा में करना चाहिए, खासकर सोने से पहले के घंटों में।


शारीरिक गतिविधि को शामिल करें: नियमित व्यायाम बेहतर नींद को बढ़ावा दे सकता है। सप्ताह के अधिकांश दिनों में कम से कम 30 मिनट का मध्यम व्यायाम करने का लक्ष्य रखें, लेकिन सोने के समय के करीब ज़ोरदार वर्कआउट से बचें।

तनाव में कमी: नींद की समस्याओं में तनाव और चिंता आम योगदानकर्ता हैं। सोने से पहले अपने दिमाग को शांत करने के लिए गहरी सांस लेने, ध्यान या प्रगतिशील मांसपेशी छूट जैसी विश्राम तकनीकों का अभ्यास करें।

अत्यधिक झपकी लेने से बचें: जबकि एक छोटी झपकी फायदेमंद हो सकती है, दिन के दौरान लंबी या अनियमित झपकी रात में आपकी नींद पर नकारात्मक प्रभाव डाल सकती है। यदि आपको झपकी लेने की आवश्यकता है, तो इसे 20-30 मिनट तक सीमित रखें।

अपने बिस्तर का उपयोग केवल नींद और अंतरंगता के लिए करें: अपने शरीर को अपने बिस्तर को केवल नींद और अंतरंगता के साथ जोड़ने के लिए प्रशिक्षित करें। इसे काम, टीवी देखने या अन्य गतिविधियों के लिए उपयोग करने से बचें जो आपकी नींद में बाधा डाल सकते हैं।

नींद और जीवन शक्ति के बीच संबंध:

नींद को प्राथमिकता देकर और इन स्वस्थ नींद की आदतों को अपनी दैनिक दिनचर्या में शामिल करके, आप अपनी नींद के पैटर्न को नियंत्रित कर सकते हैं और अपने समग्र स्वास्थ्य को बढ़ा सकते हैं। बेहतर नींद की गुणवत्ता आपकी जीवन शक्ति, ऊर्जा स्तर और मानसिक स्पष्टता में महत्वपूर्ण योगदान देती है।

आज की तेज़-तर्रार दुनिया में, उत्पादकता या अन्य प्रतिबद्धताओं के लिए नींद का त्याग करना आसान है। हालाँकि, नींद की उपेक्षा करना आपके स्वास्थ्य के लिए हानिकारक है। नींद को प्राथमिकता देकर, आप बढ़ी हुई जीवन शक्ति और एक खुशहाल, अधिक उत्पादक जीवन के लाभों का अनुभव करेंगे। यह कोई विलासिता नहीं है; यह आपके दीर्घकालिक कल्याण के लिए एक आवश्यकता है।

तो, अगली बार जब आप काम पर देर तक जागने या अपने पसंदीदा शो के उस अतिरिक्त एपिसोड में शामिल होने के बारे में सोचें, तो याद रखें कि आप एक ऐसा विकल्प चुन रहे हैं जो आपके स्वास्थ्य पर प्रभाव डाल रहा है। अपनी स्वास्थ्य यात्रा की आधारशिला के रूप में नींद को प्राथमिकता दें, और आप हर दिन तरोताजा होकर उठेंगे, दुनिया से मुकाबला करने के लिए तैयार होंगे, और एक स्वस्थ और अधिक संतुष्टिदायक जीवन का आनंद लेने के लिए बेहतर ढंग से सुसज्जित होंगे। मीठी नींद आए!

Paracetamol, Pan D among 53 medicines to fail drug regulator’s quality test, safety concerns rise

More than 50 medicines including paracetamol have been found to fail. These tests were conducted by India’s drug regulator Central Drugs Standard Control Organization i.e. CDSCO. CDSCO has recently released a monthly report. In this, 53 medicines including paracetamol, Pan D and calcium supplements have been declared not to be of standard quality. This has raised concerns about the safety of their use.

In its August 2024 report, the central drug regulator has placed paracetamol, vitamin D and calcium supplements, high blood pressure medicines and some anti-diabetes tablets in the NSQ alert category of not conforming to standard quality.

The medicines that failed the quality check include Vitamin C and D3 Tablets, Shelcal, Vitamin B Complex, Vitamin C Softgel, Anti-Acid Pan-D, Paracetamol Tablet (IP 500 mg), Anti-Diabetic Drug Glimepiride and High Blood Pressure Drug Telmisartan.

New TB Treatment Regimen & Made-in-India TB Diagnostics:

A shorter and more efficacious treatment regimen is now available for use under the National TB Elimination Programme (NTEP) which would help in reducing the treatment duration from 9-12 months to 6 months. It has been validated along with Health Technology Assessment (HTA) by ICMR. Shri Nadda informed that the Union Health Ministry in consultation with the State/UT governments is preparing a detailed rollout plan for logistics and training of health professionals for the introduction of this new regimen early next year. He also highlighted the expected reduction in duration of the treatment regimen in approximately 75,000 DRTB cases across the country.

In order to ensure country wide coverage for TB and Drug Resistance diagnosis by ‘state of the art’ molecular methods, a new indigenous diagnostic system (Patho detect) has been validated by ICMR, along with field feasibility. Shri Nadda stated that it would lead to reduction in turn-around times for test results, thereby reducing morbidity and mortality of TB patients

Mpox in india

India reported its first case of clade 1b of mpox, in a 38-year-old man in Kerala, who travelled from the United Arab Emirates. Clade 1b is the fast-spreading variant of mpox, which prompted the World Health Organisation to declare it a public health emergency of international concern (PHEIC).

The earlier case of mpox reported in India was from Delhi. A 26-year-old resident of Haryana's Hisar had tested positive for clade 2 strain of the mpox.


Mpox is a viral infection caused by the monkeypox virus, a species of the genus Orthopoxvirus. There are two variants of mpox that are distinct in nature that influence the severity of the disease and its impact on affected populations.

These strains are: clade 1b (The Central African (Congo Basin) strain) and clade 2 ( West African strain).

This strain causes symptoms like skin rash that is followed by pus-filled blisters, high fever, headaches, muscle aches, back pain, low energy, swollen lymph nodes and sore throat.

The blisters can appear on the palms of the hand and soles of the feet, face, mouth, throat, groin and genital areas, and anus.


The mpox strain is transmitted via skin-to-skin contact. It can also include being face-to-face with someone who has mpox (such as talking or breathing close to one another, which can generate infectious respiratory particles).

According to the WHO, people with multiple sexual partners are at higher risk of acquiring mpox. Besides this, people can also contract mpox from contaminated objects such as clothing or linen, through needle injuries in health care, or in community settings such as tattoo parlours.

People with mpox can pass the disease on to others until all sores have healed and a new layer of skin has formed.

Children, pregnant women and those with weak immune systems are at a high risk of contracting mpox.


WHY IS CLADE 1B DEADLY?

The clade 1b strain is known for its higher virulence, leading to more severe symptoms and complications. Patients infected with the Central African strain are at greater risk of experiencing serious health issues, including a higher mortality rate of up to 10%.

Appetite Stimulant

An appetite stimulant is a substance that increases appetite. Appetite stimulants are often used to treat people who have lost their appetite due to illness or other conditions. They can also be used to help people who are underweight gain weight.

There are two main types of appetite stimulants: prescription medications and natural supplements.

Prescription appetite stimulants

Prescription appetite stimulants are medications that are approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat loss of appetite. They work in different ways, but they all increase the level of certain chemicals in the brain that signal hunger.

Some examples of prescription appetite stimulants include Megestrol acetate (Megace): This medication is used to treat loss of appetite and weight loss caused by cancer, HIV/AIDS, and other chronic illnesses.
Dronabinol (Marinol, Syndros): This medication is a synthetic form of THC, the main psychoactive compound in marijuana. It is used to treat nausea and vomiting caused by chemotherapy, as well as loss of appetite and weight loss caused by HIV/AIDS.
Oxandrolone (Oxandrin): This medication is a synthetic steroid that is used to treat muscle wasting and weight loss caused by chronic illnesses.

Natural appetite stimulants





Natural appetite stimulants are supplements or foods that are thought to increase appetite. However, there is not as much scientific evidence to support the use of natural appetite stimulants as there is for prescription medications.

Some examples of natural appetite stimulants include Ginseng: Ginseng is a herb that is thought to increase energy levels and reduce fatigue, which may help improve appetite.


Gherkin: Gherkin is a plant that is thought to stimulate the production of ghrelin, a hormone that signals hunger.
Zinc: Zinc is a mineral that is thought to play a role in appetite regulation.

Risks and side effects

Appetite stimulants can have side effects, including Nausea and vomiting
Headache
Dizziness
Sleep problems
Increased heart rate
Increased blood pressure

It is important to talk to your doctor before taking any appetite stimulant, whether it is a prescription medication or a natural supplement. Your doctor can help you determine if an appetite stimulant is right for you and can monitor you for side effects.

Here are some additional things to keep in mind about appetite stimulants: Appetite stimulants are not a magic bullet for weight gain. They can be helpful, but they should be used in conjunction with a healthy diet and exercise program.
Appetite stimulants can be addictive. If you are concerned about addiction, talk to your doctor.
Appetite stimulants can interact with other medications you are taking. Be sure to tell your doctor about all the medications you are taking before starting an appetite stimulant.
