The part of the body that heals the quickest are the muscle and tendons as well as the mouth.

The 4 stages of healing are.

Hemostasis Phase.
Hemostasis is the process of the wound being closed by clotting.
Inflammatory Phase.
Proliferative Phase.
Maturation Phase

The time that your body repairs itself is between the hours of 10:00 pm and 2:00 am which is when your body goes through a dramatic process of physical repair.

Between roughly 2:00 am and 6:00 am your body will go through a process of psychological repair.

The body heals itself as well as recharge itself during sleep.

When you're sleeping, your pituitary gland releases growth hormone, which helps your body to grow and repair itself.

Your eyes and muscles don't move, and your brain waves slow down even further.

Deep sleep is restorative.

Your body replenishes its energy and repairs cells, tissues, and muscles.

You need this phase to feel awake and refreshed the next day.

The reason it's important to sleep between 11 and 2 or before midnight is because it's important for setting the rhythm of sleep throughout the night, too, and can enrich your physical and mental health.

The pre-midnight sleep seems to bring about the most powerful repair to the brain and body.

It sets the body into a good rhythm thereafter.

Every hour of sleep before midnight is worth two after midnight.

Between the times of 10:00 pm and 2:00 am the body goes through a dramatic process of physical repair.

Between roughly 2:00 am and 6:00 am the body will go through a process of psychological repair.

A disrupted sleep pattern will cause the Cortisol to elevate and negatively affect the regenerative process.

The age at which you start needing less sleep is 20 years of age.

When you're first born you need lots of sleep and as you get older and older you need less sleep.

Newborns can sleep as much as 14 hours to 17 hours which is a lot but the newborns need that amount of sleep.

As the newborn grows they start needing less sleep.

As you age your body produces lower levels of growth hormone, so you'll likely experience a decrease in slow wave or deep sleep (an especially refreshing part of the sleep cycle).

When this happens you produce less melatonin, meaning you'll often experience more fragmented sleep and wake up more often during the night.

For adults the recommended number of hours is 7 to 9 hours, with 6 hours or 10 hours of sleep deemed appropriate on either side. It is not a good idea to get 6 hours or less of sleep

Sometimes life calls and we don't get enough sleep.

But five hours of sleep out of a 24-hour day isn't enough, especially in the long term.

According to a 2018 study of more than 10,000 people, the body's ability to function declines if sleep isn't in the seven- to eight-hour range.

Contrary to our quiet physical state, the brain is very active during sleep, carrying out many important functions.

Sleep is essential to every process in the body, affecting our physical and mental functioning the next day, our ability to fight disease and develop immunity, and our metabolism and chronic disease risk.

A number of chronic health conditions may be affected by not getting enough sleep on a regular basis.

These include high blood pressure, diabetes, heart failure, coronary heart disease and some cancers.

You may also be more likely to have a stroke. You're at greater risk of injury.

An insomniac is someone who experiences insomnia the inability to fall asleep or stay asleep for an adequate amount of time.

Insomnia is often used casually to refer to occasional sleeplessness or a single instance of it.

Insomnia is a sleep disorder in which you have trouble falling and/or staying

The condition can be short-term (acute) or can last a long time (chronic).

It may also come and go.

Acute insomnia lasts from 1 night to a few weeks.

Insomnia is chronic when it happens at least 3 nights a week for 3 months or more.
