July 13, 2012 By Angela

According to some, the big culprit behind this growing number of obese and overweight persons are due to the propensity in overeating and indulging on unhealthy junk foods and on a lacking of will power as well as being able to afford living an inactive lifestyle without exercise. There has been a research shows that when a person has a healthy sleeping cycle, are able to have a hormonal balance in overeating and cravings for food.

What is Sleep?

Sleep is actually a natural state wherein we undergo a reduction or perhaps an absence of our consciousness which leads to the suspension of the activity of our senses as well as the inactivity of most of the voluntary muscular system. Humans need to sleep at least 8 hours the most in every day. There are actually a lot of benefits we get from sleep which aids in regaining of the energy, make your heart healthy, reduce inflammation and stress, memory boosters and many others. The important benefit that we will talk about in this article is that when a person has enough sleep, it will aid in the weight loss management especially in obese and overweight persons.

How Good Sleep leads to Weight Loss?

This is particularly the most important question that comes into mind. Is it possible that good sleep will lead to weight loss? The answer is yes. It has been studied upon by researchers which found out those persons who diet has lost weight when provided with enough sleep or good sleep compared to those who have little amount of sleep.

Scientifically speaking our body produces Ghrelin and Leptin. Ghrelin is actually a hormone which stimulates the digestive function and hunger. Meanwhile, Leptin is a hormone that creates a satiety feeling and allows the shutting down of the person’s hunger center. When a person has a good sleep, medically speaking around 8 hours at most in a day, it will ignore and shut down the Ghrelin hormones which is a good thing for those who are engaging or undergoing weight loss management.

In addition to that, another study proved that persons who are deprived of sleep have been found out that crave more carbohydrate unhealthy foods compared to those who have adequate sleeping hours. Also, this will lead to the person having lesser satisfaction after ingestion of food and crave for more food which leads to the person to gain weight. Persons who have deprived sleep have not enough ability to secrete melatonin which is needed in the restoration of the function of Leptin which results to the person gaining weight instead of losing weight.

In conclusion, the study means that the quality and quantity of a person sleep can greatly affect a person’s own weight, health as well as his own lifespan. Also, experts suggest to have a quality and adequate amount of sleeping hours in a day will leave you wonders and will benefit you in the long run. For more information you can click here.
