Fascinating Facts About Sleep        "And have it we must, but no one really knows why. Allan Rechtschaffen
and Bernard Bergman of the University of Chicago performed the now
classic sleep experiment where they deprived rats of sleep for two
weeks.

The rodents began to self-destruct. They developed weird
spots and festering sores and their hair fell out. They couldn't
shuffle while filming cute Kia commercials and were replaced by
hamsters. Then they dropped dead. The researchers couldn't figure
out why, though, but their best guess was that just staying awake
drained their body systems and made them lose their ability to
regulate body temperature.

We don't subject humans to such
extreme studies, but we know that even limited sleep deprivation
leads to increased blood pressure, incredible cravings for carbs, a drop
in body temp, and a weakening of the immune system.

Add
all that up and you've got lousy body comp, poor performance, limpdick,
and practically any other physical and psychological shortcoming
you can come up with."
