Yet another study has proven bad sleep can cause weight gain and sets you up for all sorts of health problems.

This time a 2-year study used smartphone sleep tracking tech to find heavier people had slightly shorter sleep durations and their sleep patterns were more varied and we’re talking about a difference of about 15 minutes' worth of sleep.
