When we are tired, drained and recovering from a poor night’s sleep, we are more likely to reach for foods that are quick, premade and packed with sodium and unhealthy fats. We are much more likely to give in to our cravings. Think of the last time you had an awful night’s sleep. If you’re like participants in a Cleveland Clinic study, you probably gravitated toward high-fat and simple carbohydrate-rich foods. Sleep influences our food choices during waking hours. Pay attention to the foods you crave and gravitate towards when you’re tired and what it’s like after a good night’s sleep.
