Health and length of sleep

So concludes the subject of long and short periods of sleep, we go now to the breathtaking to study the relationship between sleep duration and length of Health, the study was the outcome they raised more questions than it answers reached.

Although sleep was given credit for re health and strength to one since ancient times, but this claim was barely exposed to scientific scrutiny systematic.

Since the time is not far in the American publication of mental illness doctor (Dan Kripke) and his companions some of the findings related to this issue.

And argument and proof that it is derived from relying survey to more than one million adults adults over the age of thirty, a study conducted by the American Cancer Society in the years 1959-1960. In spite of that the search was not related to the basis of sleep, but that the search included questions about the length of the sleep period and the use of sleeping tablets, and the potential for sleep disorders.

And after six years of conducting this survey was conducted a second study in order to determine the number of people who surveyed who died and the causes of their deaths.

Has been detected amazing relationship between the length of sleep duration and mortality.

The lowest rate in the deaths spread among people who sleep period is between seven hours and eight hours every night, then that rate increases and to increase considerably when the significance of the increase or decrease the hours of sleep about it.

Sleep and the brain ...

The brain research shows that history is not new ideas that lead to new payroll and that the new statements often thanks to the invention or the use of technical means alone (new technologies).

He was recording the electrical signals and one of the most important new means of empirical research in sleep and in other areas of science (neurobiology), in a study of the relationship between brain function and behavior with sleep.

That much harder to remain follow chemical changes in the brain, since the chemical analysis requires Copyright exclude brain tissue, and whether these actions can not reveal the processes that occur inside the brain,However, they can provide the snapshot at a temporary condition, has recently reached (Raymond Cespuglio) the world at the University of (Lyon), France, to a new way of recording the electrical and chemical in sleep research, and in this way implanted electrodes especially in the permanent status in certain areas of the brain, where it can be monitored in situ concentration of neurotransmitters in the sleeping and waking animals in the laboratory minutes query this new technology may brought us closer additional step of what has become known (electric log of the brain), which makes it easy to monitor the chemical processes in the brain in an ongoing recipe, during the occurrence of the chemical processes in the brain, and that we examine the relationship of these chemical processes in the sleep cycle and vigilance.

This procedure will give us a new understanding of the basic regulation for the chemical in sleep.
