Question: Does it have to be exactly 8 hours of sleep for you to feel the most energetic!?
Well, if you sleep for much more hours, you just end up waking up sleepier!. Why is this so!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Sleeping longer than you need to will weaken your sleep system, as you reduce your prior wakefulness, exposure to sunlight, activity levels, and your body temperature at a low for too long!.

As a result, your melatonin hormone levels will stay high longer, you'll be more tired and drowsy during the day

When you sleep for long periods of time, your body temperature doesn't rise as quickly in the morning!. This results in feeling very drowsy and tired for the early part of your day!. If you stay inactive, this body temperature pattern will lead to poor sleep, which will prevent you from sleeping deeply!.

This weakened sleep system and inability to get proper restful and energizing sleep creates low energy levels and a weakened immune system!.

People usually sleep longer because their sleeping system is not being taken proper care of!. They feel low on energy during the day, and think they need more sleep!. In actuality, they feel low on energy because they have a weak sleep system, not because they're sleeping too little!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I usually only need between 6 & 7 hours a day to feel the most energetic!. I have found that over the years, the more I sleep, the more I *want* to sleep!. I can easily get by on 5 hours a night, with a 20-30 minute "power nap" during the day!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
