Insufficient sleep can also lead to obesity.
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 slept for 7-8 hours, and as a normal sleep group, the latest conclusion was drawn after observation:
Insulin in sleep deprivation group can not metabolize glucose normally, so it may develop into obesity, while insulin sensitivity in sleep deprivation 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.

Sleep and obesity
Are you the kind of person who sleeps all day as soon as you have a holiday? Do you know that excessive sleep is related to obesity? In fact, the main cause of obesity, fat, is really easy to accumulate in the body at night because of the role of parasympathetic nerves.
However, when the body is awake, it will be extremely active because of the role of sympathetic nerve, but once it enters sleep, the parasympathetic nerve of the body will replace the position of sympathetic nerve, so it will make fat easy to accumulate.
In addition, during our sleep, the consumption of calories will be minimized, and the unused calories will easily accumulate into fat. If you are a person who sleeps after eating, just like Japanese sumo wrestlers want to gain weight, you will fall asleep immediately after eating and drinking; Or they all eat before going to bed, even if they don't chew slowly, so they become super fat unconsciously.
In this lifestyle, heat can easily accumulate into fat during sleep. Eating before bed will not only make you fat, but also affect your sleep. Therefore, in order to digest the food you eat, your stomach must work hard in the middle of the night. This kind of stimulation will spread to your brain and make you sleepless. As a result, life becomes more and more irregular.
