As the creator of the 5:2 and Fast 800 diets, Dr Michael Mosley has become known as a healthy living guru with his straightforward advice and now he is encouraging people to take note of four simple ways to boost their bodies.
The former doctor turned TV presenter identifies four foods which he says can improve sleep and also have a knock-on effect in helping to lose weight. Several studies have shown that poor sleep can lead to weight gain with sufferers more likely to make bad food choices when tired, The Mirror reports, and lack of sleep also intensifies the hunger hormone ghrelin which is produced by the stomach.
Dr Mosley identifies foods to help aid sleep, which in turn can make healthier choices more likely the next day, and other food choices which can boost the body.
