Should sleeping help us to lose weight?

For weight loss, experts have a suggestion: that sleep must be adequate. The researchers found that those women who sleep less than five hours every day, that people who sleep heavier less than five hours. Adequate sleeping, to lose weight successfully, in the study, people who sleep less than five hours per night get 5.4 pounds at average than those who seven hours of sleeping. The next ten years, the weight gained an average of 1.6 pounds per year. In so doing, ten years increases by 16 pounds, two decades has increased 32 pounds! This is only an average of data, some weight is soaring. Even if weight gain is not very clear, a person's health is also likely to face significant risks, like diabetes and high blood pressure. Sleep less, eat less, you can still increase the weight! The researchers also put sports into account this factor, but cannot explain this phenomenon. People who eat little can get a lot of sleep? The answer is no. Previous studies show that a time limit for the first few days was sleep, changes in hormone levels make people more likely to feel hungry, the researchers speculated that they will appetite, eat more, but in fact they eat less. Get to the bottom first, lack of sleep can affect a person's basic metabolic rate (rest of the time a person consumes energy). Followed by the heat effect, people who sleep less, but too lazy to move, so have fewer calories. Another important reason is for the concentration of cortisol in the body changes. Lacking of sleep, people can make the body secrete more cortisol - a stress hormone - can stimulate hunger. The National Sleep Foundation says that the six and a half hours of sleep a day of women, lack of sleep will slow their metabolism and physical health have a huge impact. Easily lead to lack of sleep: block the human metabolism of carbohydrates, resulting in elevated blood glucose levels, insulin levels rise, leading to the body store more fat. Leptin concentration decreased, intakes of more carbohydrates stimulate the body. Reduce the concentration of growth hormone; growth hormone can regulate the ratio of body fat and muscle. Lead to insulin resistance, increased risk of diabetes. Blood pressure. Increase the risk of heart disease. Even if you are very young, healthy, but if sleep less than a day, one week down, and would also have a huge negative impact on health. Because of lack of sleep affects the body process carbohydrates consumed, affecting the ability of people to withstand pressure, upset the hormone balance within the body. In just a week of investigation, researchers have found that: participants had a high concentration of insulin resulting in early symptoms of diabetes. So people who want to lose weight, in addition to a healthy diet and regular exercise, but also need to ensure adequate sleep. For most people, seven hours sleeping needed each day
