Dr Nanna Olsen from the Research Unit for Dietary Studies at the Institute of Preventive Medicine at Copenhagen University Hospitals in Denmark presented new research at the 19th European Congress on Obesity in Lyon, France, which reveals that children who come into their parent's bed during the night are less likely to be overweight than children who do not.Ask Oedipus.
According to research, children that come into their parents' bed after waking up in the night are linked to short sleep duration and sleep fragmentation. Research has shown that obesity is also linked to a low quality and quantity of sleep, which therefore concludes that children who enter their parents' bed should theoretically have a higher tendency of becoming overweight or obese.
Children who venture into their parents' bed at night may also sense a feeling of security due to the positive parental social responses.

The reason is that so much of what we are told is "true" is really baseless.
At Fitness Watch we separate fitness information from fitness noise.
