Sleep quality has a significant impact on weight management. Poor sleep can disrupt the levels of hormones regulating appetite, such as ghrelin and leptin. Increased levels of ghrelin can lead to heightened hunger, while decreased leptin can diminish feelings of fullness, often resulting in increased caloric intake. Additionally, inadequate sleep may reduce overall energy levels, leading to lower physical activity and increased sedentary behavior. This cycle can contribute to weight gain or hinder weight loss efforts. Prioritizing quality sleep promotes better hormonal balance and overall health, which are crucial for effective weight management strategies.
