Robb Wolf on Lack of Sleep

Posted on October 16, 2010 by Kelly

If the notion of cancer caused by lack of sleep is not motivational to you, I’ll go for a more superficial shot-How about looking good naked. Interested yet? If you do not sleep you will:
1. Completely cock-block your fat loss.
2. Get fat, sick, and diabetic
3. Get old and wrinkled before your time.

If we are chronically insulin resistant and have elevated blood glucose levels from cortisol, it is quite similar to eating a high-carb diet. Advanced glycation end-products age our skin and organs at an accelerated rate. Insulin resistance causes us to store fat around the waistline and we tend to not use body fat for energy. Additionally, elevated cortisol destabilizes the protein collagen, which is what gives youthful skin its, well, youthfulness! Pg 129 The Paleo Solution
