Testosterone, IGF-1, & Growth Hormone are all muscle building hormones that are decreased as a result of your poor sleeping habits. Lack of sleep can also disrupt other hormones in the body, particularly affecting cortisol, leptin, and ghrelin, which play crucial roles in regulating metabolism, appetite, and energy balance.
.
Here's how lack of sleep can impact these hormones:
1. Chronically elevated cortisol levels due to poor sleep quality or insufficient sleep duration can contribute to increased stress, impaired immune function, and metabolic disturbances.
2. Studies have shown that sleep deprivation is associated with lower circulating levels of leptin, which may contribute to increased food intake and difficulty in maintaining a healthy weight.
3. Studies have shown that sleep deprivation is associated with higher levels of ghrelin, which may contribute to overeating, weight gain, and metabolic dysregulation.
🏋🏽♂️ People are always looking for ways to increase their testosterone naturally without realizing that one of the best ways is to optimize what your body makes by getting enough sleep, muscle strengthening activities, and having a balanced diet that cuts out deficiencies.
The thing is, I suspect that many of you know that lack of sleep isn't good for you but maybe understanding how it affects the hormones in your body will help you to correct behaviors and allow you to get into bed earlier or allow yourself to sleep in.
