Weight issues are non-existent. We don\u2019t have to follow some low-carb diet. There is no working up a sweat running on a treadmill for hours.\u00a0No need for herbal supplements or any magical pills.\u00a0We just fall asleep and voila \u2013\u00a0we are instantly thinner.<\/p>\n<p>Studies have shown that there certainly is a\u00a0correlation between good health and good sleep. People with sleep deficiencies have distorted quantities of a hormone that has been identified in controlling hunger. This creates an amplified appetite and increases your preference for high calorie foods.<\/p>\n<p>There is an abundance of physical consequences evident when your body lacks <a href=\"http:\/\/www.smilesbygeorge.com\/sleep-apnea-indianapolis.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sleep<\/a>. Sleep loss affects your mood, your appetite and your hormones.\u00a0You\u2019re inclined to desire comfort food when you are tired\u00a0and it\u2019s more probable that you will indulge your craving for them. You\u2019ll grab for the chips, chocolate and candy rather than choosing carrot sticks.<\/p>\n<p>Even though it may feel like you have a boost in your energy level, you will find yourself hungry more frequently.\u00a0Your hunger isn\u2019t the real problem; your sleepiness is. That will result in you not just making bad food choices but making frequent bad choices.<\/p>\n<p>For a lot of people,\u00a0emotional eating is triggered\u00a0when you are tired. This is because you\u2019re less resistant to stress and stress leads to eating. Also, people will use food as a means to stay awake. Again, your body is craving sleep, not food, but in your sleepy state, you fail to recognize this.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Visit Great Lakes Family Dental today and schedule an appointment to find out what kind of treatment your teeth needs to be healthier and to look better.\u00a0 Call 317-841-1111 or\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.smilesbygeorge.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.smilesbygeorge.com<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Great Lakes Family Dental proudly serves Indianapolis and all surrounding areas.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As seen on SleepDallas.com&#8230; A decrease in sleep, increases your appetite\u2026 and ultimately, your weight.
