Housecall for Health: Gaining Weight in Bed

If you’ve been packing on the pounds and can’t figure out why, the answer may lie in the same room you sleep in.

FOX’s Colleen Cappon reports in today’s “Housecall for Health”:

Is your bedroom making you fat?  Numerous studies show a lack of sleep can make us crave junk food, and top sleep specialist Dr. Michael Breus says altering where you sleep can help.

Change the lightbulbs in your lamps to a lower wattage, and make sure the room is quiet.  He says think of your bedding as “performance equipment” – when it comes to your quality of sleep, top-of-the-line mattresses and pillows are worth the extra expense.
