4. Why do we sleep?
While the hours of sleep vary greatly, it’s a fact that nearly every creature and animal on our planet enjoys sleep just like humans do. So, it’s kind of obvious that sleep must serve a key purpose for all living things, but science hasn’t discovered it yet.
There are a number of proposed explanations for why we sleep, like the brain needs to be recharged, or decluttered of useless information. But scientists can’t really agree on any theory.
In general, for adults, at least seven hours of sleep per night is needed for proper behavioral and cognitive functions. If an adult doesn’t get enough sleep, it can lead to serious damage, such as vulnerability to attention lapses, reduced cognition, mood shifts and delayed reactions.
In addition to that, sleep deprivation can also lead to higher risk for certain diseases and medical conditions, including obesity, high blood pressure, stroke, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, poor mental health and even early death.

Let nature take it’s course, natural human immunity is the best cure for it, so stop trying to fix what God has already perfected…
In order to HAVE time you need at least two objects that are not like each other in any manner. In the situation where that does exist movement of one relative to the other is time. We have that situation.
Time does NOT exist. It is a virtual concept created by man to measure how fast something changes. IE distance traveled per hour. And if you thing about time travel is absolutely ridiculous because to travel back in “time” you would have to move every atom in the universe back to its position at that time. Going forward in time is even more difficult because you would have to predict all the random events that would occur in the universe and then move all atoms in the universe to that position. Impossible to that. So time was created by man, a very useful concept but still doesn’t have “existence”.
