The Duvet Diet

Spending another hour lying asleep in the bed can actually help you lose extra pounds. This could be an exercise of self-control because the extra sleep cuts down your hunger pangs. It may be that the time gives your body more time to balance the resources already available in the actual body and use up the calories no longer needed. This is the fundamental concept espoused by the Duvet Diet.
 
The research upon which this diet is based draws the conclusion that it may be possible to functionally fool the brain into actually thinking that it needs less food by extra sleeping time. This reverses the findings that lacking sleep fools the human brain into actually thinking that the body needs to consume more food. Thus, obesity is caused by long work hours and staying up late until the wee hours of the morning. The internal computer thinks that the body actually needs as much fuel and energy as it uses up during daytime when you keep awake late up until the wee hours of the morning and the less hours of sleep you take, the more calories are stored in your body than you would need. In this case, the hormones are given enough time to reset themselves by the extra sleep. The less sleep you get, the less you feel full even after you have eaten your usual capacity because of these hormones.
 
This painless diet can allow you to lose 8 to 10 pounds from your weight in a year, or 100 calories every day. Extra sleep increases ghrelin, the hormone in the stomach that controls appetite and at the same time increase leptin, the hormone which regulates the feeling of hunger or fullness. People lacking sleep also feel tired to go through physical exercise and eventually increase their obesity. Sleep deprivation also increases heart complications and impairment of memory which result to poor concentration; all of which have to do with metabolic changes.
 
The way to use the Duvet diet is to develop healthy sleeping habits which results to controlled appetite and loss of weight. Follow these tips to succeed in doing the Duvet Diet:

Get more sleep
The extent of sleep required differs with each person and can be measured by your alertness & tiredness level during daytime. Address the issue of improving bedtime routines and your eating habits.

Make yourself comfortable and relaxed to be able to sleep.
Learn progressive relaxation, autogenic exercise or similar methods and avoid tyramine amino acid containing foods, which stimulate the brain and keeps you awake. This includes bacon, cheese, hams and many other foods.

Eat serotonin triggering foods like carbohydrates.
Caffeine from tea, coffee and energy drinks will likely disrupt your sleeping habits  because it stays in the system for a long time. Alcohol will likely wake you up during the midnight. 
 
Milk and regular exercise will help you sleep.
The calcium and the tryptophan will induce your sleep by relaxing your body. It is important in the effort to lose weight that the necessary health habits are developed and ingrained.

Evolution of functional weight loss methods should also evolve with the changes of personal understanding and the knowledge collected by studies and researches. The fundamental premises must be placed under the microscope to correctly determine the basic functioning of the body and mind. Lack of proper knowledge will give rise to inconsistent results in your weight loss endeavor.
