National Nap Day Follows Time Change

24 minutes ago

If you're still feeling groggy after the daylight saving time change, you're probably not alone. Many Americans say they're always sleep deprived, and the day many people get the least sleep is the day after the "spring forward" time change when we lose an hour out of the day.

"On this day Americans are not only more sleep deprived but they are also more nap ready," said William Anthony, professor of rehabilitation counseling at Boston University Sargent College of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences.

Anthony and his wife, Camille, founded National Napping Day together. Among the benefits of napping, they say, is that napping makes you feel better by improving your mood. They say napping also makes you more productive by enhancing your performance. There's also no weight gain associated with napping because people can?t eat while they're asleep

Established in 1999, National Napping Day is meant to help Americans adjust to the time change while raising awareness of the benefits of napping.

Napping has received wide publicity lately because of a recent scientific study showing that regular napping is associated with a reduced level of risk of death from heart attacks or other heart related problems.

"Our goal is to overcome the prejudicial attitudes that many people have about napping, and to encourage everyone to see that napping as a no cost, no sweat way to improved mood and performance," Anthony said.

I love the idea of a nap, but I never nap, myself. The few times I have, I wake up all groggy, thirsty and crabby!

I'll lay down if I need to, but don't actually sleep until I go to bed.

The art is not to nap for more than 30 mins,20 mins even better!! ;)

Anymore more than 30 mins and I get the 'cotton wool ' head and raging thirst (yeah, why is that?? :blink: )

      It looks like their most recent clinical trial just finished up on 5-22-2025.

      Dear Scott,  please check the link https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05574010?intr=KAN-101&rank=1 What do you think about it?
    • Scott Adams
      KAN‑101 is still very much in development and being actively studied. It has not been dropped—rather, it is advancing through Phases 1 and 2, moving toward what could become the first disease‑modifying treatment for celiac disease. https://anokion.com/press_releases/anokion-announces-positive-symptom-data-from-its-phase-2-trial-evaluating-kan-101-for-the-treatment-of-celiac-disease/

      Thiamine interacts with all the other B vitamins.  Thiamine and B 6 make a very important enzyme together. With more thiamine and other vitamins available from the supplements your body is absorbing the ones you need more of.  The body can control which vitamins to absorb or not.  You're absorbing more and it's being transported through the blood.   It's common to have both a Thiamine and a Pyridoxine deficiency.  Keep taking the B Complex. This is why it's best to stop taking supplements for six to eight weeks before testing vitamin levels.

      Yes I took a supplement that had B6 in it, low dosage though. I've stopped taking that. B1 doesn't affect other B vitamin levels?
