deep sleep

[athenterry]

There have been some studies that show that people who do not get an adequate amount of sleep at night feel hungrier than normal. It increases their appetite. This perhaps occurs due to the effect of deepsleep on hunger-related hormones, including ghrelin and leptin.

Levels of ghrelin increase when your body needs food and once, you have eaten, the levels come down. On the other hand, fat cells release leptin, which suppresses your appetite and sends the signal of fullness to your brain.

So when you are having poor sleep, your body starts to generate more of the ghrelin hormone, and less of leptin hormone. It will leave your body hungrier.

Other than these two hormones, lack of good sleep also impacts cortisol, which is a stress hormone. It can also increase your appetite.

Without using all the doctoral terms, i would say its true, i would say its not entirely because of acids alone but because the body is not resting and the brain keeps the body working. I would not recommend that someone who wants to lose weight, stop sleeping so much, because sleep is important in weight loss and weight gain.
