Are you over or under sleeping?
According to the latest episode of AsapSCIENCE, scientists monitored the sleeping habits of three groups of volunteers. One group slept four hours every night for 14 days; the second got six hours of rest, and the third, eight.
After only a couple of weeks, the volunteers in the six-hour group exhibited reaction times similar to those of people who have a blood alcohol level of 0.1 percent, as well as a steady decline in their brain function. Some of them even dozed off during the study’s assessment session.
