Study Summary
Individuals with insomnia have been shown to have higher overall metabolic rates compared to good sleepers, but it is not known which metabolic processes are involved. The goal of this study is to compare a wide array of metabolic processes in 15 people with insomnia and 15 good sleepers. We hypothesize that there will be distinct metabolic processes that are functioning differently in those with insomnia.
Primary Outcome
Metabolomics analysis of blood samples were carried out using Spectroscopy. This approach allows for rapid, unbiased and quantitative metabolic profiles ('fingerprints) to be acquired. A total of 70 metabolites were measured and compared between individuals with insomnia and good sleepers.
