Do you get tired in the afternoon? Experts say that's normal. The body has a natural rhythm that includes two drowsy periods every 24 hours, one at night and another between about 2 and 4 p.m.

So why not take a nap?

Experts say that taking a nap for less than 30 minutes — a so-called "power nap" — allows the brain to rest in a way that makes you more alert when you wake up. Research has also shown other benefits.

"We know it's an easy, helpful way to quickly boost your alertness, your concentration, your productivity, your creativity and your mood." says James Maas, who spent 48 years studying sleep as a Cornell University professor.

However, people shouldn't nap for too long, as they will fall into a deeper sleep, which is harder to wake up from.

Shorter naps are helpful for alertness and memory, says Sara Mednick, a sleep researcher at University of California-Irvine. Her research has found that naps work better than caffeine to improve brain function.

For a good nap, find a quiet, dark and cool space and set an alarm for 15 or 20 minutes.

Even if you feel like you haven't slept, you still get benefits, Mednick said. People often don't feel like they are asleep until they have reached a deeper sleep.

Short naps don't interfere with nighttime sleep, as long as they're not too late in the day. Try to take a nap at the same time every day, around 6 or 7 hours after waking up.

The only people who should avoid napping are those who have trouble sleeping at night, Maas says. Older people should be careful because they tend to nap for too long during the day.

And if you don't like napping? Research has shown that napping is not for everyone. And Mednick's advice for people who really don't like to nap is: "Listen to your body."

Tired in the Afternoon? Try Taking a Power Nap

今日は、昨日のテレビで「食品サンプル」についてやっていたので、それについて思ったことを話したいと思います。

皆さんは、食品サンプルというのをご存知ですか？
食品サンプルというのは、よく飲食店の入り口のところに飾られている、料理の見本のことです。それは、本物の食品でできているのではなくて、ずっと飾っておいても腐らない材料でできています。
それを見れば、お店に入らなくても、メニューを見なくても、その店にはどんな料理があるか一目でわかります。
しかも、食べなくてもその美味しさが伝わってくるくらい、よくできています。

実は昨日、3月26日は、食品サンプルの日だそうです。
サンプルのサンが数字の３、プが数字の２、ルが数字の６。
３・２・６・・・ということで、３月26日は食品サンプルの日になったそうです。

そのテレビで、食品サンプルと本物の料理を見分けるクイズがあったのですが、もうリアルすぎて、どっちが本物か区別がつきません。
おにぎりなんか、お米の一粒一粒から、海苔のパリパリ感まで、もはや本物。
私はそのクイズ、ことごとく全て外れました。。。


外国人観光客の方にも、お土産として人気があるようですが、今度日本でお土産を買うとしたら、食品サンプル、いいかもしれません。こっそり食卓に並べて、家族や友達をびっくりさせてみるのも、楽しそうですよ！
