Taking a Nap During the Day
Medical experts say most Americans do not get enough sleep. They say more Americans need to rest for a short period in the middle of the day.       continuing with other activities.

Adults who rested for half an hour at least three times a week had a 37 percent       risk of dying from heart disease than those who did not nap.
