Blogpost 6: Junk food, does it Affects to Sleeping Pattern and Obesity?

Everyone knows that foods high in fat or sugar are unhealthy in large quantities. Did you ever feel to get less sleep at night? Well, me too. People who got less sleep are intended to make unhealthy food choices and may have the possible to eat more junk food. This is the start of an unhealthy emotional lifestyle which will lead to health complications.

This are the proof that junk food has a lot to do with health, an article entitled "Sleepheads Prefer Junk Food" by Janet Raloff, from the site of student.societyforscience.org. The experience done for two separate night with 23 adult volunteers. They were encourage to sleep normally. Then one night, they kept the recruits awake all night. After all of experiment they found out that they become active and better after they viewing a sweet and fatty foods. This showed that people without sleep triggered changes in brain activity and this involved less active. This study shows between appetite and sleep wherein sleepheads recruits to ate highly calorie foods at least 25% more. According to the author, "A night without sleep changes the brain and how appetizing people find high calorie foods".

I agree with the author. Because based on my research people who get the right amount of sleep are more likely to be overweight. This is because the brain is less active in deciding food choices leading people to make the unhealthier decision. The amount of sleep and how healthy you eat is directly related to why people are more attracted to junk food.

I found another article entitled "Body Clocks" by Jennifer Cutraro, from the site of student .societyforcescience.org. This article talks about that in our brain that, there's a master clock that respond to determind our next activity will do. Everyone's rythm are unique. By getting hungry when normal eat and sleep. Even though we dont know what the time it is, your body does.This study pinpointed the food clock to a certain part of are body. According to Steven Shea,"There is a growing sense that when we eat and when sleep are important parts of how healthy we are".

I agree because based on my research, we all have 24 hour internal body clock that controls the host of different hormones are released and some responsible for energy levels and calming us before we sleep.

 I conclude that understanding your body clock means you can synchronize your daily activities with it, helping control your weight and improve sleep and boost energy
