Good sleep is very important for health. Sleeping relaxes the body and me. The reason for feeling energetic after waking up in the morning is due to insufficient sleep. Generally, 8 to 9 hours of sleep is considered beneficial for good health. If for any reason a person does not get sleep then the mood remains bad and does not feel refreshed. Research has been conducted on the maximum number of days a human can run without falling asleep for a night. According to a news agency, scientists have been trying to answer this question for decades.
In the 60s, an experiment was conducted on two American students in which they could stay without sleep for 11 days and 25 minutes. Students named Randy Gardner and Bruce McAllister set this record during a science experiment for the school. Apart from humans, this type of experiment was also done on animals. During a test on a cat, the cat died after 15 days without vomiting. However, the only difference is that the cats were kept awake with the help of chemicals.
However, these experiments on humans did not yield much success. According to the Guinness Book of World Records, the longest wake-up record since 1997 is held by Robert Macdonald who did not sleep for 18 days, 21 hours and 40 minutes. However, this category of records was discontinued due to the side effects of not getting enough sleep. In some facts related to sleep, it is known that if a person gets less than seven hours of sleep, he is more likely to catch a cold.
People who sleep less have a 30 percent chance of catching a cold. During sleep, a person's ability to smell is completely lost. Therefore, if you smell any kind of smell, it is believed that you have not slept. Lack of vitamin D in the body causes sleep disturbances. Indigestion, constipation or any kind of illness can be the reason for not getting sleep. Consuming too much of coffee or caffeine-type substances can also cause a person to have trouble sleeping. Insomnia also proves that you are suffering from any kind of mental problem.
