Why do we need to sleep?

            Everyday every people need to sleep in different amount of hour such as some need more than 7 hours and some need less than that. Do people know the reason for them to sleep?
            According to “Why do we need to sleep?” the article in BBC news about sleeping, It shows that sleeping helps people in term of processing, consolidating, and maintenance brain which include our new memories. For instance, the research from the University of California conducted by Matthew Walker and colleagues, aptitude tests like remembering sequences of patterns fired at them on a computer was given to volunteers that half the volunteers were allowed to sleep, and half of them were disallowed to sleep. The result showed that volunteers who were allowed to sleep had more ability to recall the test pattern.
            I have experienced a lack of sleep and I would be blurred if I do not have enough sleep that I cannot remember things, and learn new things effectively which sometimes lead me to the stress. I do not sure what other people think because some of them are possible to handle things very well with less sleep, but enough sleeping is very important for me. It helps me restore and boot my mental procedure, and. For instance, before examination date, some people like to spend much time on revising until last night but I prefer spending appropriate time that I can have enough sleep like 7 to 8 hours before I go to take the exam because if I do not have enough sleep, I can remember less information.
            Enough sleep not only relates to people’s mind but it also relates to people’s body that sleep helps people to refresh and restore. For instance, people who love to exercise and build their body believe that sleep helps them. According to “http://www.bodybuilding.com/”, there are many articles about sleep which helps to build muscle and there are the real experienced people.
            Since both people’s mind and body is very important, people should do as much as they can to take care of it. Sleep is one of the most effective ways to process, restore, and maintain both psychological and physical, so people should definitely get enough sleep.

  1. I find sleep has another function which is losing weight. If people sleep olny 5~6 hours or less,they need eating more to keep vigorous but the extra calorie is difficult to be burned by 2-3 hours activities.So,people who lack of sleep are easy to be fat.Besides if people have enough sleep,they have energy to do exericse which is helpful to keep fit.
