Los Angeles, January 21 (Xinhua) ' Reporter's plateau) American researchers have found recently, it will make the body consume the energy extra to have enough sleep. Endured for upper all night, even if anything was not made either, only kept sober and consumed and equivalent to a cup of milk or energy of two slices of bread soon by itself. But researchers warn, don't attempt to consume energy by sleeping then achieves the goal of reducing weight, because the experiment still reveals, while lacking the sleep and mending feeling, the health will " make up a deficiency " through reducing energy consumption instead . And once there is research that showed before this, it will cause the cognitive function obstacle and fat to have enough sleep. Sleep and biological clock experiment chief of the office Kenneth and Wright and his research group of Colorado university regard 7 young volunteers as the research object, let them live in the airtight room, lie in bed having a rest in the whole journey, eat the same diet. On first day, the experimenters slept totally for 8 hours, did not sleep for 40 hours continuously the next day and third day, then sleep for 8 hours. Researchers, through monitoring experimenters' brain wave, determining they suck and enter the oxygen and breathe out the quantity of the carbon dioxide, to calculate its energy consumption of health. The result reveals, if does not sleep for 24 hours, experimenters consume 7% of the energy more comparing with the time of sleeping and staying for one day normally. And while mending feeling subsequently, sleep less than normally in energy that the health consumes. This experiment shows, normal sleep cycle relates to use of the health to energy. The result of study is issued on the latest " physiologic magazine ". Researcher remind say, lack the intersection of sleep and extra energy that consume, look more, but people's health may make use of energy that the sleep invite in season to support some other important physiological course, for example consolidate study and memory ability, strengthening immunological function, producing and releasing hormone,etc.. Energy caused to have enough sleep lose, may make energy insufficient in supply physiological course these, adversely affect health.
