Summary
A new study suggests that losing just over an hour of sleep each night may contribute to weight gain, even without changing diet. Researchers asked healthy adults to delay bedtime by about 90 minutes for six weeks while waking at the same time. Participants slept roughly 80 minutes less per night, gained about one pound on average, and became more sedentary. They also showed higher leptin levels, a hormone associated with body fat. The findings highlight how chronic, mild sleep deprivation can affect metabolism, daily activity, and long-term health, reinforcing the importance of getting sufficient, consistent sleep.
