Are people who lose weight prone to insomnia?
Remember last week when we shared with you how to sleep soundly? In addition to getting up at a fixed time every day, you also need to eat three meals on time! Breakfast is especially important. If you fully consume high-quality protein at breakfast, these proteins will produce the "tryptophan" needed by the body, and the tryptophan will produce "serotonin". At night, the serotonin will produce "melatonin", a natural sleep promoter. Once melatonin is secreted, we start to feel sleepy.
Many people skip breakfast in order to lose weight!
But as I just said, if you don’t eat breakfast, you won’t be able to properly absorb tryptophan and other nutrients, and you won’t be able to produce the serotonin and melatonin needed for sleep. This is why most people who lose weight have insomnia problems.
Therefore, if you want to fall asleep easily and sleep well, you must make good use of this innate circadian rhythm, get up at a fixed time every day, and eat three meals on time. No matter how busy you are in the morning, you should have a good breakfast for yourself. In addition, fish, eggs, beans, white meat and dairy products are all good sources of protein!
