SAN ANTONIO<\/strong> \u2013 Have you thought about how well you slept last night? Your sleep can have a big impact on how you feel and your overall health.<\/p>\n Dr. Suhaib Haq, a sleep specialist at University Health, emphasizes that good sleep is crucial for everyone. He noted, \u201cNo matter what your daily routine looks like, whether juggling one job or multiple roles like a parent, it’s important to prioritize sleep. Quality sleep helps you perform your daily tasks more effectively and safely.\u201d<\/p>\n According to Dr. Haq, not getting enough sleep can lead to serious health issues, including heart problems, high blood pressure, diabetes, and difficulties with focus. Most adults should aim for about seven hours of uninterrupted sleep each night.<\/p>\n \u201cSleep is the time when our bodies can rest, recover, and recharge,\u201d Dr. Haq explained. \u201cWithout proper sleep, your body cannot do all the necessary repair work it needs.\u201d<\/p>\n He also shared that if you’re going to take a nap, it should be limited to 30 minutes. \u201cThink of a nap like a snack; if you snack too close to dinner, it can ruin your meal,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n To get the best sleep, Dr. Haq recommends avoiding caffeine for at least six hours before bed, exercising earlier in the day, and steering clear of heavy meals and alcohol as bedtime approaches.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" SAN ANTONIO \u2013 Have you thought about how well you slept last night?
