There is substantial evidence that shows that sleep can influence our weight loss, our muscle gain and our metabolism.
Ever wondered why all your diet and exercise efforts aren't paying off? It might be time to look at your sleep habits. In this episode of 'Building Thriving Lifestyles', Oddrun Eik Gylfadottir dives into the fascinating connection between sleep and weight management. Oddrun starts by sharing how everyday disruptions like a restless dog or late-night cravings can wreak havoc on your sleep schedule. But it's not just about feeling tired the next day.
Lack of quality sleep messes with your hunger hormones, ghrelin and leptin, making you feel hungrier and less satisfied after meals. This hormonal imbalance can lead to overeating and, ultimately, weight gain. But that's not all. Oddrun explains how sleep deprivation affects your decision-making and motivation levels. When you're running on empty, you're more likely to reach for that junk food and skip your workout.
The episode is packed with practical tips for improving your sleep hygiene, from setting a consistent bedtime to creating a calming sleep environment. If you've been struggling to shed those extra pounds, this episode offers a fresh perspective on how getting better sleep can be a game-changer for your weight loss journey. Tune in and start making sleep your secret weapon for a healthier, thriving lifestyle.
