Does poor sleep make you lose weight?

Poor sleep may lead to weight loss in patients because with poor sleep, the body is in a state of fatigue and lethargy, appetite is poor, patients are lethargic and have no energy during the day, and weight loss occurs with a poor diet. This situation can be adjusted by the patient in terms of diet, behavior, and medication. In terms of diet, it is recommended that patients can eat lotus seeds and cinnamon type substances, which can have the effect of strengthening the spleen and calming the mind, and improve the patient’s sleep problems. Patients will improve as their sleep improves and their weight and appetite will increase. Patients can usually drink flower tea such as acacia, rose and jasmine, which also have the effect of nourishing qi and calming the mind. If patients still improve bad sleep by the above adjustments, they can take oral sleeping pills, such as diazepam, dezopiclone, eszopiclone.
