Question

The third consequence-weight gain-can happen even if people are not eating more food than usual. At night, the body processes the calories a person eats during a day and turns them into energy. A lack of sleep disrupts this process. it sends a signal to the body that it needs to digest food more slowly. After just four days of not getting enough sleep, the body stops processing calories effectively and stores them as fat instead. One of the easiest ways to start losing weight is to get more sleep.

B
    People who do not sleep enough take longer to recover from an illness.
C
    People who do not sleep enough burn more calories than people who do.
