Would the sleeper be in a much deeper state of sleep? Would the body
need specail nutrients or chemicals to repair and recuperate this fast?

(>)Yes, the human body does need some extra nutrients while in this sort
of hyper-sleep; it may be best to eat a big meal before going out for
the night. However, in my experience the effect is minimal: I generally
just wake up with REALLY BIG munchies. Also, the bioware itself
compensates for the body's demand. It doesn't just throw your body into
a deeper sleep without a lifepreserver, it tries to balance the body's
needs; producing an extra neurotransmitter here, throwing in a bit of
hormone there. Overall, the body simply sleeps more, without the need
for much else. (Unless you've got someone on your tail. Then you might
want a bodyguard: the sleep IS deeper than normal.)
