Tesla CEO Elon Musk, the world’s richest man, has revealed the morning lifestyle he wants to change. Musk recently appeared on the YouTube channel Full Send Podcast and said, “I check my phone first thing in the morning right after I wake up.” This is a “terrible habit,” he described. Learn about good and bad habits in the morning.
◆ 80% of smartphone users ‘click’ on their mobile phone immediately after waking up
Musk’s habit of looking at his phone right after waking up is not much different from others. According to a survey result, about 80% of smartphone users check their phone within 15 minutes of waking up. Musk said that he usually goes to bed at 3 am and wakes up at 9:30 am as an ‘owl type’. He says he checks his phone as soon as he wakes up, worried about a company emergency that could happen while he sleeps. The world’s richest man is suffering from stress and anxiety.
“Because I run SpaceX and Tesla, it often happens overnight,” Musk said. Now, I want to change the habit of looking at my phone into exercise.” “You need to exercise for your health,” he said. Instead of looking at my phone right after waking up, I will exercise for at least 20 minutes first and then look at my phone.”
◆ A cup of coffee on an empty stomach in the morning?
It is not uncommon to drink a strong cup of coffee on an empty stomach as soon as you wake up in the morning. It has a wake-up effect, but it is not good for the gastric mucosa. The problem is that this habit persists for a long time. Stress-exposed gastric mucosa may have large and small gastritis and gastric ulcers. Drinking caffeine-rich coffee on an empty stomach is the worst for mucosal health. It is best to drink after filling an empty stomach with some food. It’s like taking a strong drug after a meal.
◆ The power of a glass of water in the morning… Best for metabolism and blood health
You should drink lukewarm water on an empty stomach in the morning. This is widely known. It is better to start with simple brushing to reduce bacteria that have grown in your mouth while you sleep. Water boosts the metabolism of the body that sags during sleep and is beneficial for blood health. Blood that has been dehydrated for 7-8 hours becomes sticky, increasing the risk of blood clots. People who already have heart disease or stroke can be at risk early in the morning. A glass of water in the morning is the best medicine to keep your health.
◆ ‘proper’ stretching right after waking up… wake up my body
The word ‘appropriate’ means to avoid excessive stretching that suddenly puts a strain on the back and the like, it is busy in the morning. I don’t have time to exercise. Instead of looking at your smartphone, rub your hands all over your body for 5 to 10 minutes. You may feel a surge of energy in your body. It is dangerous to do sit-ups while the body is stiff. It also has a healing effect if you massage it with your hands from the soles of the feet to the head. If you have time, it’s good to exercise. If you drink water first, you can already see signs of good bowel movements.
◆ Starting with foods that are good for cabbage, etc.
It is best to eat foods that protect the stomach, such as cabbage, which is rich in vitamin U, on an empty stomach. Other fresh vegetables are also good. Vegetables are rich in dietary fiber, which is beneficial for intestinal health and bowel movements. The feeling of satiety is also considerable. If you cut it into bite-size pieces the day before, you can take it out of the refrigerator and eat it right away. Afterwards, choose protein-rich hard-boiled eggs, nuts, and whole wheat bread. A proper breakfast can help prevent obesity by preventing overeating at lunchtime.
