In one study, after a night of limited sleep, the participants had a 2.5-fold increase in levels of norepinephrine, a hormone and neurotransmitter involved in the body’s fight-or-flight response to stress. Many people believe that a 20-45 minute nap can boost norepinephrine levels.
Low levels can cause lethargy, lack of concentration, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and possibly depression.
If you’re working or living in stressful circumstances on an on going basis then your norepinephrine levels will be particularly low, having a 20-45 minute nap is a easy way to boost your norepinephrine levels without taking pharmaceutical drugs.
