People sometimes feel "Oh, I'm so hungry", but do they want to know why they feel so hungry? This is because there are two hormones in our body that control appetite. One is hunger hormone that stimulates appetite and makes us want to eat; The other, on the contrary, is leptin, which makes us feel full and suppresses our appetite. Keeping the balance between these two hormones is called the secret of successful weight loss.
So, how can we secrete more leptin that inhibits appetite and less hunger hormone that increases appetite? The answer is: sleep! It is said that people who sleep less will secrete more hunger hormones to promote appetite, and secrete less leptin to suppress appetite, so it is easier to eat more and gain weight. In other words, people who have a good sleep every day can become thinner and eat less. Because of this, it is really important to have a good sleep.
Japan's livedoor news network introduced four sleep methods that are said to improve sleep quality and double the weight loss effect. Let's take a quick look at it together!
First, take a bath one hour before going to bed to promote hormone secretion.
In order to secrete more "slimming hormones", the key point is to get enough sleep every night. But there are also many people who have difficulty falling asleep and shallow sleep who can't enter deep sleep. For such people, it is recommended to take a bath one hour before going to bed.
There is a "deep body temperature" in our body. When the "deep body temperature" drops, we will feel sleepy, and then we can go into deep sleep. Bathing can promote blood circulation and raise body temperature. After bathing for about an hour, the body temperature will drop again. At this time, you can sleep more deeply. Let's try to get into the habit of taking a bath about an hour before going to bed!
