Bethesda, Md. (Oct. 9, 2013)— In many modern societies, adults often sacrifice sleep during the workweek to make time for other demands, then snooze longer on the weekends to recoup that lost sleep. Research has shown that even a few days of lost sleep can have adverse effects, including increased daytime sleepiness, worsened daytime performance, an increase in molecules that are a sign of inflammation in the body, and impaired blood sugar regulation. These last two could be partially responsible for why sleeping less negatively affects health in other ways and shortens the lifespan. Though many people believe they can make up sleep lost during the workweek by sleeping more on the weekend, it’s unknown whether this “recovery” sleep can adequately reverse these adverse effects.

To help answer this question, researchers led by Alexandros N. Vgontzas of the Penn State University College of Medicine, placed 30 volunteers on a sleep schedule that mimicked a sleep-restricted workweek followed by a weekend with extra recovery sleep. At various points along this schedule, the researchers assessed the volunteers’ health and performance using a variety of different tests.

The researchers found that the volunteers’ sleepiness increased significantly after sleep restriction, but returned to baseline after recovery sleep. Levels of a molecule in blood that’s a marker for the amount of inflammation present in the body increased significantly during sleep restriction, but returned to normal after recovery. Levels of a hormone that’s a marker of stress didn’t change during sleep restriction, but were significantly lower after recovery. However, the volunteers’ measures on a performance test that assessed their ability to pay attention deteriorated significantly after sleep restriction and did not improve after recovery. This last result suggests that recovery sleep over just a single weekend may not reverse all the effects of sleep lost during the workweek.

The study is entitled “The Effects of Recovery Sleep After One Workweek of Mild Sleep Restriction on Interleukin-6 and Cortisol Secretion and Daytime Sleepiness and Performance.” It appears in the American Journal of Physiology-Endocrinology and Metabolism, published by the American Physiological Society. The article is available online at http://bit.ly/17TeQgg.

Methodology

The researchers recruited 30 healthy adults who were normal sleepers and put them on a 13-day schedule that involved spending nights in a sleep lab. For the first four nights, the subjects were allowed to sleep for 8 hours, setting a baseline for a healthy, normal amount of sleep. For the next six nights, the researchers woke the subjects up 2 hours earlier. For the following three nights, the subjects were allowed to sleep for 10 hours. The researchers monitored the volunteers’ brain waves during these sleep sessions. At three points during the 13-day schedule, the volunteers spent whole days at the lab taking part in various tests: after the 4 days of baseline sleep, after 5 days of restricted sleep, and after 2 days of recovery sleep. On these days, the subjects had catheters inserted into their arms, and the researchers sampled blood every hour, testing it for levels of interleukin-6 (a marker of inflammation) and cortisol (a hormone secreted during stress). They also participated in a test of how quickly they fell asleep when allowed to nap several times during those days (an objective measure of sleepiness) and filled out questionnaires to assess how sleepy they felt (a subjective measure of sleepiness). To assess their performance, they participated in a test in which they were asked to press a button whenever a dot appeared on a screen, which measured how well they were able to pay attention.

Results

Not surprisingly, the researchers found that after 5 days of restricted sleep, the subjects were significantly sleepier on both objective and subjective tests compared to baseline levels. Their interleukin-6 levels increased sharply during restricted sleep, though their cortisol levels remained the same. Their performance on the attention test deteriorated. After 2 days of recovery sleep, both objective and subjective tests showed that the volunteers were less sleepy. Their interleukin-6 levels reduced, and their cortisol levels decreased significantly compared to baseline, possibly suggesting that the volunteers were sleep deprived before the study started. Notably, their performance on the attention test didn’t improve after recovery sleep.

Importance of the Findings

Though many indicators of health and well being improved after recovery sleep, these findings suggest that extra sleep may not fix all the deficits caused by lost sleep during the workweek.

“Two nights of extended recovery sleep may not be sufficient to overcome behavioral alertness deficits resulting from mild sleep restriction,” the authors write. “This may have important implications for people with safety-critical professions, such as health-care workers, as well as transportation system employees (drivers, pilots, etc.).”

The authors also suggest that even though these results provide some insight on the health effects of a single week of sleep loss and recovery, reliving the cycle over and over again may have more significant health effects that this study wouldn’t show.

“The long-term effects of a repeated sleep restriction/sleep recovery weekly cycle in human remains unknown,” they write.

Looking forward to trying this soon.

Looking forward to trying this soon.

When you do, definitely start at 1 cap as it is strong!

 

[Geoforce]

Yes. Need more!

It's there!

Just got my Sleephoria yesterday. Took 1 cap and was in twilight within 30 minutes.

I loved the 2-bromomelatonin that used to be in X-dream before it was discontinued, and Sleephoria definitely picks up where that supp left off and more.

Props to making a great product, if Virline Mane works as good as this, I'll have a hairline like Judge Andrew Napolitano in no time after it comes out.

The Judge has the hairline of a god. Reps for being a fan of him (and the great review).

Initial feedback of Sleephoria has been really positive! Glad to hear it.

Does this have to be take on an empty stomach for best results? I really want to try this but my last meal is usually 10pm....bed shortly after..

Not necessarily. What are the usual macros of your final meal?

 

[ms_mac]

Its my biggest meal of the day. Usually 60 pro, 80 carbs, 30 fat...I am guessing this may hinder results?

Do you take any kind of GDA (Slintensity, etc) with it?

 

[ms_mac]

Not at this time.....I run out of slintensity a few weeks ago and have not replaced it ....waiting for Defuse>

Me too...I have been drooling at the Pumpkin treats, and been craving that Turkey and Stuffing feast which we Yanks call Thanksgiving. Defuse is HIGHLY anticipated from this end too....so I'm pushing hard!

I would recommend, then, that you start with the 2 capsule serving of Sleephoria...but it will still work for you.

 

[ms_mac]

Perfect - thanks so much

Pulling the trigger on this and AMMO right now...

 

[dsade]

AMMO is my new favorite product!!!!

The next few months are looking to be incredible, with AMMO, DCP, Slintensity upgrade, CardioTryx (for the limited cardio I do), and Defuse, all with Sleephoria increasing my recovery.

I'm planning on pulling out of the Winter looking and feeling better than ever, with a GIANT headstart for the Arnold.

Do that ****!

What fat loss pathways is the ammo using besides cortisol?

Restock ETA at the planet?

Should be back in stock next week.

 

[Drenaline31]

Dsade just want to thank you on this product. It will be the first sleep supplement I will be repurchasing. I get ridiculously vivid dreams, dramatically noticeable enhanced recovery, reduced onset time to sleep, and I stay asleep for pretty much exactly 8 hours no matter what. I feel fantastic, and you are a genius.

Thanks for posting this...it makes me feel good to help people out. I suffer from terrible insomnia, and it can really be a huge detriment.

Holy moly.

Just wanted to say Matt, your rep midwestbeast sent me a free bottle out of his personal stash. I'm on night 3 at 2 caps and the sleep is truly incredible. It's the opposite of oneiromancer...rather than dreaming all night, my mind goes fairly silent and I wake up very refreshed. I appreciate your emphasis on deep wave sleep rather than REM.

 

[BigGame84]

Yeah this product is incredible. I have 1/2 a bottle left and it's sold out everyplace.

Thanks Coop...a lot of time was spent dialing this in, and quite a few of the most "common" sleep ingredients were discarded as being counter productive to sleep depth and recovery. I'm very proud of how this came out.

Hopefully we'll have more stock very soon...I'm down to about 6 capsules. :/

 

[Geoforce]

Glad you guys are enjoying it. Now we just gotta get it back in stock, I've been bombarded by PM's from people

Glad it's treating you well, bro.

I know you need as much and as good of sleep as you can get

Since when did natty allow you to sleep?

I'm glad you were able to give it a shot, coop. I know you're a big fan of Abyss Unparalleled, but Sleephoria is a nice little formula, too. I really agree with it silencing over-activity (not sure if that is the correct choice of words). I don't have any trouble sleeping or falling asleep, but I do have some pretty intense dreams that lead me to be groggy in the mornings. Sleephoria shut that down.

They're both great. Sleephoria has less of a hangover but doesn't put me to sleep as hardProps to midwestbeast for introducing me to a new definition of sleep!

What ingredients of the formula do you like best?

 

[mr.cooper69]

What ingredients of the formula do you like best?

The melatonin derivative is the work horse for sure, but valerinic acid, crocin, and of course ashwaghanda are all winners

 

[domore]

From some of the studies Matt shared with us, it seems crocin is a big player in the non-REM, zero activity sleep you experienced.

The general health benefit of magnolia extract are interesting, too.

 

[BigGame84]

Rationing what I have left. Hopefully this remains on track to return soon?

 

[Geoforce]

I believe this should be back in stock quite shortly. I know we didn't expect it to be out this long. I don't know the exact time table, but very soon I believe.

 

[Whacked]

Sub'd. (Can't believe I missed a thread like this)

Need to try this stuff out

 

[Ambiggity]

I am stalking the interwebs daily until it's restocked! My hubs recently had to switch to graveyard shifts at work and trying to prep for a show in a April. He's been having the worst time trying to get enough sleep. Pretty much every sleep aid he has tried up to this point makes him way too much of a zombie to safely go to work the next night. Can't wait to get my hands on some Sleephoria for him to try out.

 

[dsade]

Back in stock tomorrow or Friday!

 

[Whacked]

Nice

2 caps is listed as standard but you know how that goes (rolls eyes) LOL

What does will provide a legit and desired effect?

Thanks

Back in stock tomorrow or Friday!

 

[BigGame84]

2 caps does the trick for me. Never tried 3. Thought never crossed my mind.
