A recent study by British researchers based on the UK population found that lack of sleep is more likely to cause weight gain or even obesity, and that people's metabolic health levels are also low.

Researchers at institutions such as the University of Leeds in the United States reported in the US Science Public Library·Comprehensive that they collected data on sleep duration, diet records, blood samples and body weight of 1,615 British adults, and the relationship between sleep and health. Expand the analysis. The analysis found that people who stayed on average for about 6 hours per night had a waist circumference that was 3 cm more than those who slept 9 hours a night. In general, people with shorter sleep periods in this group had higher body weight.

The researchers believe that this result further proves that lack of sleep may increase a person's risk of developing metabolic diseases such as diabetes. One of the authors of the report, Leeds University scholar Greg Porter, said that the number of people with obesity problems in the world has more than doubled since 1980. Obesity causes many diseases, the most widely known is type 2 diabetes, so understand why people Increased weight is very important for public health management.

In addition, the analysis also found that the shorter sleep time is related to the lowering of the body's high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (good cholesterol) level, which may cause many health problems. Higher HDL cholesterol levels can reduce the risk of a person suffering from diseases such as heart disease.

However, the researchers also said that this is only a result based on a large number of data observations, and it is not possible to draw a final conclusion on this. Different people need different amounts of sleep every day, but a relatively recognized view in the academic world is that for most adults. 7 to 9 hours of sleep time is the best choice.

Vitamins & Nutritions

Vitamins:

Vitamin A: Retinol. Carotene compounds responsible for transmitting light sensation in the retina of the eye. Deficiency leads to night blindness.

Beta carotene: An antioxidant which protects cells against oxidation damage that can lead to cancer. Beta carotene is converted, as needed, to vitamin A. Food sources of beta carotene include vegetables such as carrots, sweet potatoes, spinach and other leafy green vegetables; and fruit such as cantaloupes and apricots. Excessive carotene in the diet can temporarily yellow the skin, a condition called carotenemia, commonly seen in infants fed largely mushed carrots.

Vitamin B1: Thiamin, acts as a coenzyme in body metabolism. Deficiency leads to beriberi, a disease of the heart and nervous system.

Vitamin B2: Riboflavin, essential for the reactions of coenzymes. Deficiency causes inflammation of the lining of the mouth and skin.

Vitamin B3: Niacin, an essential part of coenzymes of body metabolism. Deficiency causes inflammation of the skin, vagina, rectum and mouth, as well as mental slowing.

Vitamin B6: Pyridoxine, a cofactor for enzymes. Deficiency leads to inflammation of the skin and mouth, nausea, vomiting, dizziness , weakness and anemia.

Folate (folic acid): Folic acid is an important factor in nucleic acid synthesis (the genetic material). Folate deficiency leads to megaloblastic anemia.

Vitamin B12: An essential factor in nucleic acid synthesis (the genetic material of all cells). Deficiency leads to megaloblastic anemia, as can be seen in pernicious anemia.

Vitamin C: Ascorbic acid, important in the synthesis of collagen, the framework protein for tissues of the body. Deficiency leads to scurvy, characterized by fragile capillaries, poor wound healing, and bone deformity in children.

Vitamin D: A steroid vitamin which promotes absorption and metabolism of calcium and phosphorus. Under normal conditions of sunlight exposure, no dietary supplementation is necessary because sunlight promotes adequate vitamin D synthesis in the skin. Deficiency can lead to osteomalacia in adults and bone deformity (rickets) in children.

Vitamin E: Deficiency can lead to anemia.

Vitamin K: An essential factor in the formation of blood clotting factors. Deficiency can lead to abnormal bleeding.


Nutritions:

For the treatment of nutritional disease, any of the nutrient-related diseases and conditions that cause illness in humans. They may include deficiencies or excesses in the diet, obesity and eating disorders, and chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, hypertension, cancer, and diabetes mellitus. Nutritional diseases also include developmental abnormalities that can be prevented by diet, hereditary metabolic disorders that respond to dietary treatment, the interaction of foods and nutrients with drugs, food allergies and intolerances, and potential hazards in the food supply. All of these categories are described in this article. For a discussion of essential nutrients, dietary recommendations, and human nutritional needs and concerns throughout the life cycle, see nutrition, human.
