We eat healthier and drink less alcohol
On vacation, what we usually leave for weekends or special occasions during the rest of the year becomes habitual: a beer or wine in the middle of the afternoon, an ice cream for dessert, the snack we take to the beach or the pool, an outdoor barbecue, nights out and drinks... All of these things, if we do them in moderation or sporadically, have no impact on our health, but they do if we do them regularly, as usually happens on vacation. Returning to routine will help us abandon - or leave for the weekends - unhealthy habits and resume healthy ones, so important for maintaining long-term health.
Back to exercising
Although there are people who take advantage of them to practice their favorite sports, the most common thing is that during vacations we are more sedentary and we also abandon the routine of going to the gym or scheduled classes.
It helps us have more regular sleep and go to bed earlier
In vacation We can get up later, without the alarm clock disturbing our sleep when we are most comfortable sleeping. However, sleeping later does not mean sleeping more or sleeping better. In fact, on vacation it is common to go to bed much later, something that negatively affects sleep, even if you sleep the same hours.
On the other hand, a Recent research, carried out by the European Society of Cardiology, suggests that going to sleep early - between 10:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m. - reduces the risk of developing heart disease by 12% compared to going to sleep. Sleep after 11 at night . Therefore, with the same hours of sleep - at least seven - it is healthier to go to bed earlier, something we usually do more when we are working than when we are on vacation.
We respect circadian rhythms more
We all have an 'internal clock' known as circadian rhythms, periodic fluctuations - especially hormonal - that occur in our body throughout the day and that regulate functions such as sleep, our energy levels, our brain activity, digestion. Respecting these rhythms is important to maintain our health , since there are more and more studies that link the alteration of the circadian rhythm with diseases such as diabetes, obesity, different types of cancer, kidney pathologies , etc.
On vacation we alter them completely and abruptly: we go to bed later and get up later, we eat at odd hours. Returning to routine will help us respect circadian rhythms and avoid the additional risk of altering them.
