Stanford study links obesity to hormonal changes from lack of sleep

ration decrease from eight hours to five hours.

While it remains unconfirmed whether observed changes in ghrelin and leptin are sufficient to produce increases in body weight, Mignot said he believed they were likely to do so because all the effects were in the right direction and of the expected magnitude.

Mignot said more studies on the direct effect of sleep loss on food intake, energy expenditure and obesity are needed. Altering sleep duration may prove to be an important way to prevent and treat obesity. Mignot is working on setting up a trial to study this approach.
