Sleep is an integral part of our everyday life. Everybody must sleep. We have to process the information from the day and regenerate. People, on average, sleep 8 hours a day. That’s like 1/3 of our life, and that is on average 227,760 hours (+ more for us, given we can have Eternal for longer life). That’s a hell lot of time, isn’t it?
But what if I told you this doesn’t have to be the case for us? What if I told you that you can claim a big chunk of that time? How would your life be like if every day of yours had an additional hour, 2 hours or even 4 hours without any side effects? Ladies and gentlemen, I introduce The Perchance to Dream, formerly known as Short Sleeper, to you. Captain again proved us that everything is possible! Big thanks to him .

Description:
Genetic change: There are actually 4 identified NSS (natural short sleeper) genes: DEC2, ADRB1, NPSR1, mGluR1
There is like 1-4 % of people who have at least one of the genes and naturally sleep 1-4 hours less than average.
- DEC2
“… a study conducted by Fu’s team discovered that people who had inherited a particular mutation in a gene called DEC2 averaged only 6.25 hours of sleep per night;”

" The underlying question, Tafti says, is how much sleep do people really need ? Could most people do just fine on seven hours or do some really need to slumber for a full nine? In order to sleep less, people would need to sleep better—that is, more efficiently, with more intense REM states, Tafti explains, which appears to be happening in those with the DEC2 mutation. “We believe that short-sleepers have more efficient sleep,” he says."

- ADRB1
“Individuals in the family who carried this ADRB1 gene variant sleep for only about six hours a night—about two hours less than average—without any effect on their daytime functioning.”
More details
" Additional experiments showed that wakefulness-promoting neurons in the pons with the mutated version of ADRB1 were more easily activated. Furthermore, the ratio of wakefulness-promoting to sleep-promoting neurons skewed heavily towards the former in mice with the ADRB1 mutation. These experiments suggest that the mutant form of ADRB1 promotes natural short sleep because it helps build brains that are easier to rouse and that stay awake longer."

Gene Linked to Need for Less Sleep Identified in Family Members
- NPSR1
“Fu and her team identified the newest gene in a father-and-son pair who averaged just 5.5 and 4.3 hours of sleep each night, respectively – far less than the eight or more hours that most people need in order to avoid feeling sleep-deprived.”
More details
“NPSR1 is part of a signaling pathway in the brain that promotes wakefulness. When it’s activated, it switches on other proteins in the same pathway by attaching a chemical modification to them. To test whether the mutant and non-mutant versions of NPSR1 were able to activate components of this pathway to the same degree, the researchers injected a compound that triggers NPSR1 into both normal and genetically-engineered mice. They then looked at proteins downstream from NPSR1 to see how many of them had been chemically modified to promote activation. They found that mutant NPSR1 activated many more downstream proteins than the non-mutant version…”

- mGluR1
“The degree of shortened sleep length (~25 min less) induced by mGluR1…” (in mice)
Now imagine the duration of sleep with having all 4. But that’s not all. Using the following, the sleep will get even greater, beyond what NSS people experience!
Hormonal change: Accustoming levels of Cortisol, GABA, Melatonine, Serotonine, HGH, Adenosine and similar hormones for greater regeneration and more rejuvenating sleep
Deeper sleep: On command Deep Sleeper activate, you fall asleep quicker and your sleep will be deeper
Superhuman fast regeneration and healing: This NFT will make the user’s body regenerate much faster, much more effectively, will train them to enhance the regeneration and healing processes, as one of the sleep tasks is the regeneration. Stem cells are in use too.
This will be accompanied by Deep cleansing of organs to support the process and to make body work more frictionless.
Brain holds a very special place during sleep, as we all know. This field will make brain young similarly as Plasma brain and will sufficiently refresh it.
Smart enhanced body functioning: This upgrades body organs and functions to work more effectively and better at all tasks that directly or indirectly include sleep processes. The body will be able to regenerate itself easier and less exhaustable. This will use the concept of enhanced body functioning field accustomed towards the short sleep. And that’s accompanied by the following three subfields.
Enhanced metabolism: The body will be better at absorbing nutrients and capable of producing vitamins C and D, Creatine, possibly more.
Unlimited energy: This will accompany the other processes by providing more energy through supercharging mitochondria.
Increased oxygen absorption: The body will make a better use of the same amount of oxygen. To this, antioxidants are added to counter any potential unwanted oxidation.
And here’s one bonus - Memory Support: Current direct brain stimulation
“it’s called direct current brain stimulation. You insert a small amount of voltage into the brain, so small you typically don’t feel it, but it has a measurable impact. Now if you apply this stimulation during sleep in young, healthy adults, as if you’re sort of singing in time with those deep-sleep brainwaves, not only can you amplify the size of those deep-sleep brainwaves, but in doing so, we can almost double the amount of memory benefit that you get from sleep.” More info:
