Have you ever wondered why you tend to wake up early after you’ve had a few too man the night before? Well we've got the answer for you.
Aaron White of The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism told Buzzfeed that it's actually your body trying to trick you.
“Alcohol tricks you into thinking you’re sleeping better because you pass out a little faster but it’s actually very disrupting and prevents you from getting a restful, deep sleep.”
So pretty much your body thinks it got this amazing night of sleep when really it’s just in hangover mode.
I guess that's just what we get for drinking a few more than we really should...
