0108 Insufficient Sleep Alters After-Dinner Consumption of High-Carbohydrate Snacks

[摘要] IntroductionUnderstanding mechanisms underlying the relationship between insufficient sleep and weight gain has importance for public health. Our previous findings showed, although total energy expenditure is higher during insufficient sleep, food intake especially after-dinner snacks, increases beyond the elevation in energy expenditure resulting in positive energy balance and weight gain. Prior findings from other laboratories have shown that, during insufficient sleep, people select either salty and/or high-carbohydrate snacks. To better understand food choices during insufficient sleep, we examined the number of times subjects selected high-fat and high-carbohydrate snacks, and total calories consumed from after-dinner snacks during experimental sleep restriction.
