According to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), the liver is most active between 1am and 3am. During this time, the liver is responsible for cleansing the blood and detoxifying the body. It's crucial to be asleep during this period to allow the liver to perform these vital functions efficiently. Waking up frequently between 1am and 3am could indicate an imbalance in the liver or issues with detoxification pathways.
While some may believe other organs are particularly active at 2am, TCM emphasizes the liver's role during this time.
