In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Links between sleep and food intake are manyfold. In healthy individuals, sleep deprivation promotes obesity by stimulating food intake of high glycemic index (GI) foods. Conversely, high GI foods induce sleepiness. Obesity is observed in 30-50% of patients with Narcolepsy type 1 (NT1). Its determinism may involve transient changes in basal metabolism at the early stage of the disease, eating disorders, disrupted nighttime sleep and sleepiness. In contrast, patients suffering from idiopathic hypersomnia (IH), whose nocturnal sleep is generally long and of good quality, rarely present with obesity. By studying the relationships between diet, body composition and sleep patterns in these two populations and in healthy controls, the NARCOFOOD study aims to provide a better understanding of the determinants of obesity in narcolepsy and, more generally, of the effects of food intake on sleepin
