RealAge Tip of the Day
Monday, December 27

Skimping on sleep may add inches to your waistline.
Your blood levels of leptin, a hormone that acts as an appetite
suppressant, appear to decrease when you experience sleep deprivation,
according to new research. Keep leptin levels high and curb overeating and
weight gain by getting at least 6 to 8 hours of sleep per night.
RealAge Benefit: Getting 6 to 8 hours of sleep per night can make your
RealAge as much as 3 years younger.
