你屬於易失眠一族嗎？
睡眠是正常生理需求，成年人每日需要睡約六至八小時，時間長短因人而異，有些人可以秒速入睡，有些人卻輾轉反側難以入眠，原來和身體狀況有關，從中醫角度來看，經常性不易入睡、易醒、醒後不易再度入睡均屬於「不寐」範疇，常見成因包括精神壓力大，情志不暢，導致肝火過盛，心神被打擾而不得入眠等，陰虛及血虛體質人士特別容易有睡眠問題。陰虛體質的人水液不足，陽氣偏盛，體內容易有虛熱，容易感覺心煩而不能入睡，睡覺時容易出汗，宜適量進食滋陰食物如百合、沙參、雪耳、花旗參等滋陰清熱。血虛體質人士因為氣血不足，多出現疲倦乏力、頭暈、心悸、健忘等症狀，容易多夢而醒，治本之道為補氣養血，適量進食紅豆、龍眼肉、紅腰豆、靈芝、黨參等補氣血食物，有助改善失眠情況。

Sleep is important as it is a biological need. An adult typically requires six to eight hours of sleep daily, and the length varies for each individual. Some would fall asleep at lightning speed, and others have a very hard time. This may be affected by our body condition.
From Chinese medicine’s perspective, individuals with trouble sleeping, often awakened easily, or those with difficulty to sleep again once they are awake, these groups of people belong to the sleep deprivation category known as “Bu Mei” in Mandarin. High level of stress and emotional instability are among the common causes, which in turn lead to the accumulation of excessive heat on the liver, hence disrupting our sleep.
Individuals with yin deficiency and blood astehnia are especially prone to insomnia. Those with yin deficiency usually do not have sufficient body fluids and have excessive yang energy, these lead to asthenic heat in the body and disrupts sleep. due to them not having enough body fluid at the same time retaining excessive Yang energy. All these lead them to develop deficiency-related heat in the body.
