And after dinner at night, the organs of the body can't rest and must continue to work. This tension is transmitted to the brain, and the excitement of the brain is enhanced, which is transmitted to all corners of the body, leading to insomnia at night.

Some people like to drink tea or coffee at work to get rid of a night's fatigue, but they can't sleep after work. If it lasts for so long, it will inevitably lead to neurasthenia and premature aging.
