Deep Sleep Diet

Add a good night's sleep to your checklist of helpful weight-loss aids.
Sleep deprivation interferes with appetite-suppressing hormones,
increases stress hormone levels, and decreases a person's glucose
tolerance, all of which may contribute to weight gain. Another way
sleep loss may help pile on the pounds: late-night munching. Go to bed
and get up at the same time each day to help achieve sounder sleep.

RealAge Benefit: Getting 6 to 8 hours of sleep per night can make your
RealAge as much as 3 years younger.
