Suggest Right Number Of Sleeping Hours In Night To Boost Up Energy During The Day?

I start work from 9am to 5 pm every week day. Around a couple of hours before my shift ends, I feel so tired and I can t work any longer. Im only 17 and I consider myself healthy. How many hours should I sleep every night, so I can boost my energy during the day? And do you recommend any energy pills or whatever you think is suitable for my case? Thank you.

Hi

I understand your concern.

sleep is very sound if you sleep up to 6 to 7 hours continuously in night.

6 to 7 hours sleep is enough in a day.

6 hours sleep in night is necessary and you have to sleep.

Sleep hygiene is good to maintain by certain routines and lifestyle modification
Fix sleep schedule and stick on it

No day time sleep

Exercise that makes you fatigue

Stress free activities and meditations
Avoid alcohol and smoking

Avoid heavy meal in dinner

Avoid tea coffee soft drink at night

Use bed when you feel sleepy
Read up to when you will sleepy




calm and cool bed room

All of this will help you to restore good sleep.

I hope i have answered your query.

Happy to help you further.

Thank you.
