摘要
研究表明,一夜不睡觉会让人们更喜欢垃圾食品。科学家把这种效应归因于大脑处理食物奖励的方式。此前的研究发现,睡眠不足与腰围增大有关,一些研究表明,睡眠中断可能会影响荷尔蒙水平,导致饥饿感或饱腹感发生变化。但最新的研究表明,荷尔蒙与这种现象可能没有多大关系,原因可能是大脑中负责奖赏和调节的区域内和区域间活动的变化。
Having even one night without sleep leads people to view junk food more favourably,research suggests.Scientists attribute the effect to the way food rewards are processed by the brain.Previous studies have found that a lack of shuteye is linked to expanding waistlines,with some suggesting disrupted sleep might affect hormone levels,resulting in changes in how hungry or full people feel.
