Narcolepsy is a chronic neurological disorder that affects the brain’s ability to control sleep-wake cycles. People with narcolepsy have excessive, uncontrollable daytime sleepiness. They may also suddenly fall asleep at any time, during any kind of activity. The exact cause of narcolepsy is unknown in contemporary sciences. People with type 1 narcolepsy have low levels of the chemical hypocretin, which is an important neurochemical that regulates wakefulness and REM sleep.The relation between high-fat diet and narcolepsy needs further research.
