I'm no MD, but I did see a Stanford sleep psychologist for a long period to deal with my sleeping issues.
As usual, the answer to whether polyphasic sleep works isn't very attractive. In a nutshell, it will work for some people, but probably not for most. We evolved to sleep at night, plain and simple.
That being said, I would love more details on how this would help you manage your regular sleep. I see it supports "monophasic" mode, I would have definitely bought in at a lower price point.
- intelclinic 13y agoMany sleep scientists say that the most natural sleep for people is divided into two parts: night and at noon. The polyphasic sleep is directed to people who can't afford such amount of sleep for example because of their work. They can try the polyphasic sleep for some time. That's why this kind of sleep is only some NeuroOn functionality. In biphasic or monophasic sleep modes (as you said, the natural for people) this device helps you by waking up gently avoiding doing it during deepest sleep. That's why it is much more pleasant than using normal alarm clock.
