Since sleep affects weight loss, it stands to reason it also plays a role in weight gain. Learn why sleep is important for weight loss, but also for maintaining a healthy weight.Sleep is one of the body’s most critical functions. The problem? Most American adults don’t get enough sleep. While adults need a full 7-9 hours of sleep each night for optimal function, most adults barely get 7 hours of sleep per night. Over time, the lack of sleep can slow the metabolism, resulting in weight gain. This is especially true for women, who consistently report a higher incidence of insomnia than men. Women must also navigate through a range of hormonal changes at different phases of life that can also disrupt sleep and cause weight gain.
