People need sleep to survive, and adequate sleep is good for health. However, if the sleep time is too long, the whole nerve center will be inhibited for a long time, which will lead to organ dysfunction and weight gain. But studies have found that lack of sleep can also induce obesity, at least in the short term. This must attract the attention of young men and women who attach importance to losing weight.
Researchers at the University of Chicago in the United States studied more than 30 healthy young men and women, some of whom slept less than 6 hours a night as a sleep deprivation group. The rest sleep for 7 ~ 8 hours. As a normal sleep group, the latest conclusion is drawn through observation: the insulin in the sleep-deficient group can not metabolize glucose normally, so it may develop into obesity. However, the insulin sensitivity of the normal sleep group is normal. It is unknown whether people who lack sleep can improve their insulin sensitivity after improving their sleep. Therefore, people who sleep more than 8 hours and less than 4 hours a day will gain weight, and proper sleep will help health.
