Too Much Of Travelling Can Cause Insomnia

Posted on October 29, 2008 in Latest News

Men, whose work demands lot of traveling, are more pone to suffer from insomnia. Excessive traveling causes jet lag and body aches. Also, shift in timings across countries greatly disturbs an individual’s internal clock.

Internal clock is a mechanism the body uses to prepare and time an individual to sleep and wake up at a particular time. The internal clock is based on the night and day timing. Traveling to another country where there is a complete change in day and night timing may put the body through some stress. This is because suddenly the body is exposed to a different time schedule; this tendency is common in people who visit countries with a different time schedule form their own.

The individual may appear sick and haggard the first few days ad then may adapt himself/herself to the new timing. However, constant traveling and exposure of the body to different time schedules can cause a lot of stress and strain to the body, increasing the risk of chronic insomnia.

Therefore one needs to be very careful and take proper precautions to avoid suffering from insomnia.
