During the night, you cycle through five separate stages of sleep every 90 to 110 minutes, experiencing between three and five dream periods each night. The five stages of sleep can be distinguished by changes in the electrical activity in your brain, measured by electroencephalogram (EEG).
Sleep is important to a number of brain functions, including how nerve cells (neurons) communicate with each other. In fact, your brain and body stay remarkably active while you sleep. Recent findings suggest that sleep plays a housekeeping role that removes toxins in your brain that build up while you are awake.
