Our body needs seven to nine hours of sleep every night to rejuvenate it. If this basic requirement is not fulfilled the brain cannot not produce normal amounts of feel good chemicals serotonin and dopamine. The body therefore looks for other ways to compensate for this .It starts craving for sugary foods that gives an immediate release of these chemicals.
The lack of sleep throws off our entire system. It becomes an even bigger factor with the increase in age. As we age the pineal gland of our brain produce lesser and lesser amount of the hormone melatonin, resulting in subsequent curving for carbohydrates. So make sure that you get sufficient quantity of sleep to keep oneself thin.
