#sleep #nutrition We start June combining sleep and nutrition. This is a new study published in Neuroscience News basically looking at the effects of “junk food” on sleep. It shouldn’t be a surprise that junk food negatively effects our sleep. What’s new is the findings about what part of our sleep is most effected. “Essentially, the unhealthy diet resulted in shallower deep sleep. Of note, similar changes in sleep occur with aging and in conditions such as insomnia. It can be hypothesized, from a sleep perspective, that greater importance should potentially be attached to diet in such conditions,” explains Cedernaes.” Sleep changes with aging also often increase risk of cognitive impairment. Could junk food be doing the same?
