Does staying up late often help you lose weight?

Doctor Xiao Lingzi said that if a person does not sleep all night, he will only burn a maximum of 147 calories but can increase his calorie intake by up to 600 calories.

According to the above estimate, if you do not get enough sleep in a week, you can gain nearly 0.5 kg and up to 26 kg in a year.

Lack of sleep reduces the ability to secrete growth hormone by up to 70%, leading to poor metabolism and inability to consume calories effectively, causing excess energy to be converted into fat, eventually leading to weight gain.

Staying up late for a long time affects physiological functions, can disrupt the biological clock, causing the body to fall into a state of chronic fatigue, insomnia, difficulty sleeping, and light sleep.

When sleep quality is not guaranteed, it will lead to a decrease in the body's circulation and metabolism, reduced leptin secretion, and increased ghrelin.

This hormonal change increases hunger and makes you more likely to crave food, especially at night, and easily indulge in high-calorie snacks, increasing fat storage, especially in the abdominal area.
