Detailed explanation-1: -Raising the volume of your radio will help you stay awake while driving. False. If you’re having trouble staying awake while driving, the only short-term solution is to pull over at a safe place and take a short nap or have a caffeinated drink.
Detailed explanation-2: -Sleep is important to a number of brain functions, including how nerve cells (neurons) communicate with each other. In fact, your brain and body stay remarkably active while you sleep.
Detailed explanation-3: -But is taking a quick rest-closing your eyes, putting your feet up and clearing your mind for a couple of minutes-as beneficial as getting some sleep? The concise answer is ‘no’. There are numerous claims relating to the benefits of rest to mind and body. However, nothing compares to the benefit of sleep.
Detailed explanation-4: -Myth: It Doesn’t Matter When You Sleep as Long as You Sleep Enough Hours. Studies have demonstrated that the timing of sleep matters, and it’s best to sleep as much as possible during hours of darkness. Sleeping at night helps align the body’s circadian rhythm, or internal clock, with its environment.
