In this episode, we explore the fascinating link between sleep and weight management. Say goodbye to the myth that diets alone hold the key to shedding stubborn pounds! We dive into the nitty-gritty of sleep and its impact on our hormones, metabolism, and ultimately, our weight. Get ready for a sleep revolution!
Discover how sleep deprivation wreaks havoc on our hormone balance, leaving us with unstoppable cravings and a disrupted appetite control system. We uncover the role of key hormones like ghrelin and leptin, and how their delicate dance can either make or break our weight loss efforts.
We’ll delve into the impact of sleep on our metabolism, uncovering how insufficient sleep slows down our calorie-burning engine and messes with our glucose metabolism. Don’t despair, though! Learn practical tips to optimise your sleep routine, and I’ll share patterns I see in my clients, and emphasise the importance of taking a holistic approach to weight management. Tune in and unlock the sleep connection to achieve your weight loss goals.
I also share my favourite fact of the week, about how to prevent damage from processed foods and I answer a listener’s letter all about rosacea.
