That's why you sleep badly

The problems of concentration and attention caused by insomnia or poor sleep can be alleviated, according to a recent study.

First Research

The research included 44 volunteers, aged 21 to 50. In three days, they were given unlimited access to food and drink during the day, but they were allowed to sleep only four hours at night.

Adults burn about 500 calories during the night, when their sleep is limited”, said author David Dinges, director of the Psychiatry Experimental Unit at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, in a university statement.

On the fourth night, about half the participants continued unlimited access to food and drink. The other half had limited water after 22.00, and they went to sleep at 0400 in the morning.

At 2: 00 a.m. every four nights, participants received tests to measure memory, thinking ability, drowsiness, stress levels, and moods.

After the fourth night of their sleep restriction, people who ate less at night had a better and less distraction time than people who ate at night.

Another Study

In another study, the same research team found that adults with chronic sleep deprivation have reduced metabolism. Researchers have suggested that individuals may need “compensate” this small “loss by increasing physical activity or by reducing calories to prevent post birth weight loss.

This study included 36 healthy adults aged 21 to 50. How much energy their bodies use when relaxed they measure after a normal night's sleep and after five nights of sleep of just four hours at night.

During poor “sleep” (short), metabolic “lowered”, and after normal sleep and rest, he returned to normal.

The chief author of the study, Namni Goel, a research associate and professor of psychology and psychiatry at the University of Pennsylvania, said in a statement: the short “Gjum is an important risk factor for weight and overweight growth, especially in the approximately-American men”.

Surveys

Again it was confirmed that irregular sleep and a little sleep, as well as inappropriate diet (<x0).
