Does Belly Fat Cause Poor Sleep?
– Have you noticed? The more weight you gain in your midsection, the harder it seems to get a restful night. –
You toss and turn, wake up in the middle of the night, or just don't feel the least bit rested.
The mystery lies in what this "visceral" fat does to your body, even when you're lying down.
It’s not passive. It actively releases inflammatory substances that can disrupt your sleep rhythms.
It can also put physical pressure on your organs, making breathing harder and causing micro-awakenings.
You wake up tired, your stress hormones (cortisol) spike, and your body stores... more fat.
It’s the perfect loop: the fat causes bad sleep, which in turn creates the stress that stores more fat.
Breaking this cycle seems impossible, but a mechanism exists to reverse this nightly chemical process
What if you could "reboot" this cycle? Restore your hormonal balance just by sleeping deeply?
