There is a correction. I incorrectly stated that leptin levels go up when we don’t get enough sleep…they actually decrease. Leptin is a hormone that makes you feel full. So lack of sleep definitely makes you gain weight, or at least increase your appetite, but just wanted to get the hormone directions accurate!
Either way, get your Vitamin ZZZZZZZ.

- 60% are overweight
- 60% are at risk for diabetes, cancer and heart disease
- 145 million people are living with chronic diseases
So what do Woody Allen and “showing up” have to do with your company?
Everything.
“Presenteeism” refers to productivity loss resulting from employees “showing up” with “benign” health problems such as more.
