Sleep

Sleep is an important part of brain health. While your body is resting, the brain remains active and gets recharged while still controlling the functions of your body. Recent findings also suggest that sleep plays a role in removing toxins that build up in your brain. Getting a good night’s sleep is critical for your ability to focus during daytime hours.
