Effects of exercise and diet interventions on obesity-related sleep disorders in men: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial

Abstract: BackgroundSleep is essential for normal and healthy living. Lack of good quality sleep affects physical, mental and emotional functions. Currently, the treatments of obesity-related sleep disorders focus more on suppressing sleep-related symptoms pharmaceutically and are often accompanied by side effects. Thus, there is urgent need for alternative ways to combat chronic sleep disorders. This study will investigate underlying mechanisms of the effects of exercise and diet intervention on obesity-related sleep d… Show more

“…It is yet unsolved whether weight loss causes gut microbiota modifications or vice versa. In obese individuals with sleep disorders, a 6-month individual progressive exercise program, combining Nordic walking, stretching, strength, relaxation, together with dietary suggestions, improved sleep quality and modified gut microbiota composition [110]. It has been speculated that even Tai-chi, as a form of moderate-intensity exercise involving deep breathing and meditation, might induce favorable changes in gut microbiota by mediating the HPA axis [111].…”
