Sleeping is an enigma in human life and is defined as reversible disengagement and unresponsiveness to the external environment, regularly alternating in a circadian manner with engagement and responsiveness.1 We understand the significance of adequate sleep but hitherto, the full function of sleep is not fully elucidated.
