- langitbiru 7y agoHahaha, I know this book will show up soon or later. I haven't finished the book yet. But the book is very informative and easy enough to be read.
- 013 7y agoCurrently reading this at the minute. Extremely easy to read and informative.
- leethargo 7y agoAlso, the Circardian Code by Satchin Panda. I have read both recently, and there is a lot of overlap, but the Circardian Code goes beyond sleep into nutrition and execise, as well.
- pps 7y agoOh yes, definitely. Another one from these experts is Valter Longo with his book "The Longevity Diet". All three of them were interviewed by Rhonda Patrick https://www.youtube.com/user/FoundMyFitness/videos https://www.youtube.com/user/FoundMyFitness/videos for people who like to watch/listen before reading. Matthew was also a guest in Joe Rogan Experience https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pwaWilO_Pig https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pwaWilO_Pig
- leethargo 7y agoI found only one point in which Satchin Panda and Matthew Walker were disagreeing: Satchin said that there were no (genetic) sleep types among humans (who prefer to get up and go to bed early, or late) referencing a paper in which a group of students went on a hiking and camping trip where they all synchronized to the same rhythm after a few days of exposure to all natural light. Matthew, on the other hand, says that there are definitely variations in sleep time preference in humans, with a genetic base and recommends to find out so that the ideal time windows for work and sleeps are chosen. Does not give a reference, sadly. Not sure what to make of it, really.
