  1. 1 sOfi!

    A scientist at the Sleep Research Unit at Loughborough University, has a new theory. He says that we don’t really need to sleep; we do it only because our brain is programmed. The tiredness we feel at the end of the day is produced by a mechanism in our brains, which makes us sleep. We are programmed to feel tired at midnight, even if we have spent all the day doing nothing. Dr. Meddis believes that when we don’t sleep we suffer a few symptoms, and that’s because we have disobeyed our’s brain programming. The answer is on the scientists, if they could locate and turn off the sleep mechanism in our brains that makes us feel tired, we could live completely normal lives without sleeping.
