Abstract

The prevalence of chronic partial deprivation has increased dramatically in the past half century, with rising epidemics of overweight & obesity. Adequate sleep is a critical factor for adolescent’s health & health-related behavior. Although  genetic factors, altered food selection, physical inactivity are strong contributors of obesity pandemic, but partial sleep deprivation  results in metabolic changes which may contribute to the development of obesity This association seems to be related to both sides of the energy balance equation due to combination of increased food intake & more sedentary habits.
