Just like the body’s biorhythm, the brain also has cycles and it is said that the prefrontal cortex (the brain’s control tower) works best in the morning. It peaks in the morning and gradually declines from the afternoon, and at night it does not work as actively as it does in the morning. Then, at around 4 am, when work is at its lowest, the brain starts to be active again. This suggests that even if you work late at night and reducing your sleep, you will not be able to exercise much of your ability because you are going against the brain’s biorhythm.
However, it is not always enough to get up early in the morning. It is also very important for the brain to get quality sleep.
When you work with your body and mind every day, your brain and body are in a state of fine inflammation. And after waking up, eating breakfast to recharge glucose and nutrients, which are the energy required for the hungry brain after sleeping, will allow the prefrontal cortex to work again with full power.
Keep in mind that good sleep and breakfast for better brain performance is needed in the morning to activate your brain!
