Are You a Woman over 40? Do You Want to Lose Weight in Your Sleep?
By Perry Permann
Too many women over 40 are stressed out and do not get adequate sleep. Does sleep impact your power to lose weight permanently? Often statistics are an interesting read. The amount of sleep and the danger of being overweight are statistically related. Anything below 7 hours sleeping time per day increases the danger of being overweight. At 6 hours per day the risk is 23% higher. This might be difficult to understand- after all, when we sleep our metabolism slows down so we burn less calories. But, first of all, it’s not that much: Just 50 calories per hour. And: There is a biological process in place prohibiting us from waking up because we are hungry. In order to sleep many hours continously the body releases Leptin. Leptin makes your appetite less. While we are sleeping we are less hungry and do not need to eat. If you don’t get adequate sleep and you are exhausted your body releases Ghrelin. Ghrelin increases appetite. So, when you sleep less you are hungrier- and you have more time to eat too. Since you are easier challenged emotionally when stressed out, the temptation to get some “comfort food” increments. The body repairs itself while we are sleeping. Somatropin and other fat burning hormones are secreted. They assist building muscles and make your skin firmer. Sleep makes you more attractive! If you'd like to assist these hormones reviving your body, try out this: * Eat light in the evening, and consume adequate protein.
* If you want to lose weight while sleeping, you need to allow your body to decrease the blood sugar and insulin levels. So: Don't eat late.
* Don’t drink alcohol before going to bed: You might think alcohol causes you to sleep more deeply. That’s not true: Alcohol scales down the time spent in deep sleep phases.
* Oxygen, fresh air and regular physical exercise assist you to step-up the depth of your sleep If you want to lose weight over 40 sleep is an essential component. If you aim for lasting weight loss, you need to get enough sleep. That’s particularly important for women over 40- over 40 the body's natural fat-burning mechanisms are reduced. Particularly if you would like to reduce belly fat you need to bring down the Cortisol levels in your blood. For that you need to get adequate resting time and sleep. Broadly Speaking, having adequate breaks will not only make you more productive. It will assist you with the emotional obstacles of weight loss as well. Sleep and rest are an fundamental, yet oftentimes overlooked element in successful weight loss programs. It is a beneficial idea to have a small, 10 minute break each hour- peculiarly if you are working in a seated position.. Get up and stretch a bit- this will get your metabolic processes working so you feel more energized and aids you burning fat too. Every 2-3 hours get a larger break. And don't use your lunch break to eat too much- you'll feel inactive and less energized. Better have a small lunch and in the afternoon a little, healthy snack. Are you a woman over 40?
