Sometimes many adults want to go back to their childhood years.
This is a time of carelessness, tasty afternoon snacks and daytime sleep. The last point is worth discussing in more detail. After all, not every child will agree to go to sleep during the day.
But, as it turns out, it is really necessary to sleep during the day. And it is not only about children. This habit will benefit adults.
Researchers in the UK have claimed that men and women who take a break for a short nap during the day end up with healthier brains and perform better on mental tasks.
In addition, the risk of developing dementia is reduced and blood pressure can be regulated.
But we must take into account that we are talking about a short sleep. It will only be beneficial if the break does not last more than half an hour.
The corresponding findings were published in Sleep Health .
