Description
Is there a relationship between loss of sleep and weight gain? This is the question people are asking. Science has an answer. Read on to know the answer and what to do when you find yourself in this particular situation.
As you probably know, sleep disorder called sleep apnea which leads to loss of sleep is a condition characterized by respiratory disease, those phases in which the person stops breathing, from a few seconds to a minute. For multiple times during the night this can happen. Due to this respiratory blockage, the patient often wakes up at night.
A person goes through five stages in sleep:
Stage 1: drowsiness
Phase 2: light sleep
Stage 3: deep sleep
Stage 4: deep sleep with a slow wave
Stage 5: REM (rapid eye movement)
Waking up so frequently during the period when apnea will prevent the sufferer from falling asleep soundly, especially REM sleep.
The result of sleep apnea is poor quality sleep and also an actual shorter time in deep, restful sleep. Several studies have shown that sleep deprivation is linked to obesity.
