Short sleep duration and decreased sleep quality are emerging risk factors for obesity and its associated morbidities. Chronotype, an attribute that reflects individual preferences in the timing of sleep and other behaviors, is a continuum from morningness to eveningness. The importance of chronotype in relation to obesity is mostly unknown. Evening types tend to have unhealthy eating habits and suffer from psychological problems more frequently than Morning types, thus we hypothesized that eveningness may affect health parameters in a cohort of obese individuals reporting sleeping less than 6.5 hours per night.

Researchers find evening chronotypes, a.k.a. “night owls,” are at higher risk for obesity, stress, and other health perils.  Find out more about the science of your chronotype and how sleep affects your day-to-day, including your mood. (via explore-blog)
