Sleep is a crucial biological function and a well-established driver of health and wellbeing across the lifespan. In this review, we describe how sleep in humans is associated with specific circadian metabolic and physiological changes, and how the organization of sleep-wake states is related to regulation of nocturnal metabolism during fasting. Among the modifiable factors that can contribute to sleep-related benefits, emerging evidence suggests that diet and nocturnal changes in glucose regulation are strong determinants of sleep quality. Here, we review studies that have explored the importance of quantity and quality of dietary carbohydrates and proteins in modulation of sleep and sleep-related health benefits. Future research may guide the creation of nutritional solutions to improve sleep, which could lead to positive changes in health, wellbeing, and overall quality of life.
睡眠是一项至关重要的生物功能,是贯穿整个生命周期的健康和幸福的既定驱动因素。在这篇综述中,我们描述了人类的睡眠如何与特定的昼夜代谢和生理变化相关联,以及睡眠-觉醒状态的组织如何与禁食期间夜间代谢的调节相关联。在可能有助于与睡眠相关的益处的可调节因素中,新兴证据表明,饮食和夜间葡萄糖调节的变化是睡眠质量的重要决定因素。在这里,我们综述了探讨膳食碳水化合物和蛋白质的数量和质量对睡眠和与睡眠相关的健康益处的调节作用的研究。未来的研究可能会指导创建改善睡眠的营养解决方案,这可能会导致健康、幸福感和整体生活质量的积极变化。
