No compensation for lost sleep


Recommended Posts

A study conducted by sleep researchers at Northwestern University has shown that when animals are partially sleep deprived over consecutive days, they no longer attempt to catch up on sleep despite an accumulating sleep deficit.

 

The study suggests that repeated partial sleep loss negatively affects an animal’s ability to compensate for lost sleep, and that the body responds differently to chronic sleep loss than it does to acute sleep loss.
