NED Alert - Effect of sleep duration on dietary intake, desire to eat, measures of food intake and metabolic hormones: A systematic review of clinical trials in Clinical Nutrition ESPEN. 2021. With Expert Review from Daniel Quinones

Short sleep duration and disruptions to circadian rhythm have been associated with being overweight and obese. It has been suggested that sleep restriction may interfere with appetite regulating hormones leading to increased appetite and disrupted energy balance.

This study aimed to systematically review studies exploring the relationship between sleep duration and food consumption, energy intake, anthropometric characteristics and appetite-regulating hormones.

The review founds that reduced sleep duration may serve as a mediator for weight gain in part due to increased appetite, increased fat intake and disruptions to energy balance. It also concluded that enhancing sleep quality may serve to support weight loss protocols.
