We spend about 24 years of our lives sleeping, yet the exact function of sleep is still being debated by scientists.
In experiments, researchers monitored three groups of participants
who slept 4, 6, or 8 hours a night over an extended amount of time.
After just two weeks, the group who slept 6 hours had a similar reaction
time as a person whose blood alcohol concentration was 0.1 percent.
Those who slept 4 hours would fall asleep during their cognitive tests.
