Not getting enough sleep doesn’t just make you tired. It also makes you fat, according to scientists.
In a study, participants who slept for five hours each night gained two pounds in weight over a week because they snacked more.

The findings are alarming with millions of Britons - about one in three adults - regularly sleeping less than five hours each night.
