As soon as we pass through the REM into peaceful slumber. All pertinent chemicals in the brain have been replaced. This meets the full requirements of our sleep needs. All else is pure habit.I can vouch for that concept. For more than the last decade which I worked, I put in 7 days a week, 12 to 14 hours a day the entire time. In order to spend the amount of time with my wife which she deserves, this only left me around three hours daily in which to sleep. I never needed more than that, and often got less. I did fine.It was after I left that job, and took around three months off in which I became quite lazy that I developed any problems. My wife and I both believe that my suddenly resting about ten hours a day is the reason I began throwing clots in my right leg. After five Femoral Bypasses one begins to have a feel for such things. Trust me on this.We are omnivorous creatures, but our history is that of a carnivore. Carnivores never put in much sleep unless full. Our eating habits may be our worst enemy. If one eats a straight protein, or meat, diet, weight is never an issue, energy is hígh, and you rarely becóme ill. Vegetables can be added to this menu with care, but when one starts adding carbs? You're in trouble right away.Tim
