Everyone has times when they feel too sleepy or drowsy throughout the day and want an immediate rest. And many people think that, when the most sleepy is the best state of rest, is it true? The answer will be in the article below.

1. Reasons why you always feel so sleepy

1.1. Your Unhealthy Diet You're eating a healthy diet that doesn't necessarily mean you have to eat salads and boiled foods. You simply need to eat a balanced diet rich in all nutrients. The biggest reason behind not getting quality sleep is because you're lacking in the nutrients your body needs so badly. Examples include protein, healthy carbs, vitamins, minerals, and more. In addition, eating the right meal is of paramount importance, because sleeping right after eating a heavy dinner will make you feel uncomfortable, not being able to sleep will make you feel sleepy the next day.
1.2. Your weight has increased. Being overweight leads to fatigue, so you always want to stay in bed. Your weight also puts pressure on muscles and joints, leading to soreness, and gives the feeling that your body is trying to rest. According to research done by the journal Sleep Health, sleep and weight are directly related.
1.3. How you go to sleep If on some days you sleep on time and on other days you skip that routine, your body clock won't be able to adjust. You will never be able to achieve high-quality sleep this way. Therefore, you need to make sure that you plan your day so that at least 90% of the time you finish the recipe and go to bed on time, so that you can sleep for at least 8 hours without being disturbed.
1.4. All your muscles are sore and tired The constant way of living and working doesn't do you much good, because it makes you tired instead of energizing you. Overtraining and then returning to your routine puts unnecessary stress on your muscles, causing them to tire and weaken. And in the end you always feel tired!
1.5. You are fasting If you skip meals and fast, then you will definitely feel sleepy all the time. Hunger won't allow your body to relax and release hormones that make you irritable, so you have a disturbed sleep.

1.6. You are not providing enough water for your body If your body is well hydrated, it will help you maintain your energy levels. A study published in the British Journal of Nutrition found that a little dehydration can lower energy levels, and even have an impact on a person's cognitive health.
1.7. You're Eating Too Much Refined Foods Refined foods are high in carbs and sugar, which act as an instant source of energy. But this spike doesn't last long and leaves you feeling tired and drowsy.
1.8. You are under pressure, stress Stress does not lead to mental fatigue but also to physical fatigue. That's why you feel like dozing off, when you're exhausted. A study published in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health found that stress reduces the number of hours you sleep, affecting your productivity the next day.
1.9. Depression, anxiety Feeling sleepy during the day can be a symptom of depression. And depression has both emotional and physical components. Drowsiness can be caused by depression slowing down your system.
Likewise, Anxiety can make you want to sleep during the day. Or, you can take a nap one day when you feel anxious and find yourself calmer after the nap. A nap can become a crutch allowing you to avoid confronting your anxiety. If you feel anxious before you feel drowsy, a counselor can help you take the next steps. On the other hand, anxiety can also make you so stressed that it's hard to fall asleep or try to stay up later.
If you think you may have depression or anxiety, consider talking to a healthcare provider, therapist, or counselor. Remember that depression and anxiety must persist for several weeks to be diagnosed. Feelings of depression or anxiety are natural to everyone from time to time, especially after important life changes such as a new job or the loss of a loved one. Your doctor can't immediately treat feelings of depression and anxiety from these symptoms, but a therapist or counselor will be able to help you work through these feelings even if they aren't. is a symptom of an emotional disturbance.

1.10. Health problems Drowsiness, fatigue and feeling weak are among the most common symptoms of many medical conditions. Common causes of daytime sleepiness include:
Anemia Autoimmune diseases Cancer Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Depression Diabetes Fibromyalgia Metabolic Cardiovascular Disease Infection Time Menopause Pregnancy Thyroid disease Some of these conditions drain your body of resources, while others can reduce cellular energy production. Some can disrupt your sleep, either directly or as a result of their symptoms — or even treatments.

2. Evidence that “The most sleepy is the best rest”

The results of a 2008 CDC poll are. The dubious honor goes to West Virginia, where nearly a fifth of residents said they never rested or slept enough in the past month. In general, people living in the Southeast states say they get too little sleep.
On the other hand, the best rested Americans live on the island territories and the state of Hawaii. Residents of Puerto Rico, Guam, Hawaii, and the US Virgin Islands are most likely to say they've slept or rested a lot in the past month. While geography plays a role, so do other factors.
Too little sleep or rest each day in the past month is more commonly reported as a result of:
People aged 25 to 34 years (13.8%) compared to those 65 years of age and older (7.4%) Black people non-Hispanic (13.3%) versus white non-Hispanic (11.2%) Women (12.4%) versus men (9.9%) Those with have lower secondary education (14.3%) than those with a college education (9.6%) People who are divorced, widowed or separated (16%) compared with those with a college education married people (11.1%) or unmarried people living together (12.1%) Those unable to work (25.8%) compared with those with work (9.9%) or even the unemployed (13.9%) CDC poll is part of a giant Behavioral Risk Factor Monitoring System. In 2008, a national sample of 403,981 US residents was asked, "In the past 30 days, how many days do you feel you haven't slept or rested enough?" Here are the results by state.
