Yeah.
It's pretty brutal.
Five nights of that.
Were they coming unglued mentally too?
I think I would feel terrible after that kind of stretch.
Which might not sound like much, but when you start layering that in day after day and you think, you know, 3,500 excess calories more or less for a pound of body weight, and then you start when people accumulate that over time, if they're in a night shift condition or new parents or...
tending to a sick relative or just final exams.

It strikes me that, you know, for a long time in the stress research, the idea was when people are stressed, they reach for kind of quote unquote comfort foods, carbohydrate, and typically starch, fat, starch, fat, sugar combination foods to comfort them.
And the just so story was always that, okay, well, you know, cortisol's main role is to deploy glucose.
And so people are doing this as a way to bring excess energy and it all kind of fits together.
what is the relationship between these forms of sleep deprivation that you work on and stress?
Is it really a way of, I'm not saying just inducing stress because I think sleep is its own thing, but it's stressful just to be less than adequately rested, independent of the things coming at you in life, right?
