It is well known that insufficient sleep affects our daily life. Sleeping less or not enough can make us irritable, moody, and have no energy to work, making us feel gloomy all day long. Lack of sleep not only makes your mind dull, it also affects your health. Effective sleep should be 6-8 hours/day because while we sleep, it is the time when the body can fully develop important processes. If we do not get enough sleep or sleep less than 6 hours/day, it may cause health problems.

One of the effects is probably the hormone that causes obesity, ‘cortisol’. Which will go on a rampage when the body doesn’t get enough rest, causing us to want to eat more sweets and starchy foods. Moreover, cortisol can make us look older than our age because cortisol reduces the collagen levels under the skin.

In addition, sleep affects the metabolism of carbohydrates and makes us lose our inhibitions in choosing to eat. So it’s not surprising that on days when you don’t get enough sleep, you may crave fast food, cake, candy, or sugary drinks more than usual.

The cause of staying up late, leading to lack of sleep, is the current lifestyle or way of life. Various changes in life, including work schedules that make us have to work late at night. Are all causes of insomnia that may be a result of stress, UFABET, work obsession. And various problems that come up until it becomes stress, resulting in symptoms of chronic insomnia or Chronic Insomnia. Try to observe yourself that if you have insomnia 3 nights a week for 3 consecutive months. It is assumed that you have symptoms of chronic insomnia.

There are many different factors that can cause people to gain weight when they don’t get enough sleep. One reason is that when we don’t get enough sleep, our bodies produce more cortisol, or the stress hormone. When cortisol is high, our appetites increase.

In addition, mealtimes have increased. Having more waking hours also leads to longer mealtimes, with most of the food consumed being high-energy snacks and drinks. Including some people who have to stay up late, they may eat or drink to reduce drowsiness. All of this results in more energy than before, and results in weight gain.
