How to sleep and lose weight
1. Sleep not less than seven hours and not more than nine hours every day. A study shows that lack of sleep will affect the secretion of hormones that help burn calories during the day, and also affect the secretion of "leptin".
Drink a glass of milk an hour before going to bed, because milk contains some substances that can calm and hypnotize and eliminate tension at the same time. Helps to soothe nerves and improve sleep quality.
Do not read or watch TV in bed. This behavior affects mental disorders and is very unfavorable to sleep. Over time, it causes insomnia and then neurasthenia.
4. Try to sleep before eleven o'clock in the evening, because nine to eleven o'clock is the prime time for lymphatic detoxification, which helps the body to expel toxins and accelerate metabolism. At this time, listen to some quiet music to help you sleep.
Take a short nap, but don't take a nap for more than 30 minutes, because long sleep will cause slight headache and fatigue, which will lead to the result of going too far.
6. Lack of sleep can lead to obesity.
American researchers found that the less sleep, the easier it is to get fat. It is reported that through investigation, the researchers found the connection between them, so they conducted further research to try to find the specific connection between them under laboratory conditions.
The researchers recruited 17 volunteers and rigorously tested their sleep time, food intake and exercise status. In the first three nights, volunteers can sleep as long as they want, with an average time of 6.5 hours. After that, they were divided into two groups. Nine of them can maintain their normal sleep habits for the next 8 days, while the rest 8 people's sleep time is reduced to 5 hours, 10 minutes. In this process, there is an unlimited supply of food. The researchers found that the eating habits of the former group of volunteers did not change, while the latter group of volunteers ate more. Volunteers who slept less than 80 minutes at night absorbed an average of 549 calories, which is equivalent to eating an extra hamburger and a bag of French fries.
Summers, the head of the study, said that lack of sleep will affect food intake, because lack of sleep will reduce the secretion of leptin that inhibits appetite and increase hunger hormone accordingly. Therefore, these volunteers gained weight in different degrees within 8 days. Summers concluded: "Many people surf the Internet at night, so they never get enough sleep, which will lead to obesity."

5. Vegetable diet
The cellulose, special substances and moisture contained in vegetables are very beneficial to lose weight and reduce fat accumulation. The residence time of cellulose in vegetables in the intestine is shorter than that of other foods, which can interfere with the excessive absorption of nutrients and reduce fat accumulation; At the same time, the heat production capacity of cellulose itself is extremely low, which can reduce the storage of heat. In addition, many substances contained in vegetables can promote the decomposition of fat and make the body consume fat. Vegetables conducive to weight loss include celery, Chinese cabbage, spinach, leek, white radish, cucumber, green onion, pumpkin, wax gourd and bean sprouts.
