Consumption of a diet high in saturated fat has been associated with daytime sleepiness. A whole-food plant-based (WFPB) dietary pattern, which is low in saturated fat, has been shown to be beneficial in a variety of health conditions. We assessed the effect of a short-term (21 days) WFPB diet intervention on daytime sleepiness in 14 patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). We found a mean decrease of 3.8 points (SD = 3.3, p = 0.003) on the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) after switching from a standard Western diet to a WFPB diet. Our results suggest that a WFPB diet could be a viable dietary intervention to reduce symptom of daytime sleepiness.
摄入高脂肪的饮食与日间嗜睡有关。全食物植物性（WFPB）饮食模式，饱和脂肪含量低，已被证明对多种健康状况有益。我们评估了短期（21 天）WFPB 饮食干预对 14 例阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停（OSA）患者日间嗜睡的影响。我们发现，从标准的西方饮食切换到 WFPB 饮食后，Epworth 嗜睡量表（ESS）的平均得分下降了 3.8 分（SD=3.3，p=0.003）。我们的结果表明，WFPB 饮食可能是一种可行的饮食干预措施，可减少日间嗜睡的症状。
