I'm quite thin (barely 70 kg for 1m82) but I notice that each time I increase my calories on purpose (to try to gain weight for example) my sleep problems seem to get worse.
I have big problems with insomnia, but my best nights sleep is when I'm "undernourished", I actually even perform better in sports when I get fewer calories.
These days I ate more calories than usual and my sports performance was nil and the sleep worse than usual, much too sedated during the day and awake at night, I just ate a porridge with honey + fap + anti-histamine to reduce stress hormones and sedate me to the max but it doesn't work AT ALL. As a general rule, I can't quite get tired and want to fall asleep quickly like when I was a child.
Weird little fact but which can be important to me, stressing about an event the next day or ruminating helps me sleep better.
The extra calories mostly come from easily digestible carbs and I was able to sleep well when I was a bit vegan with lots of beans etc so it's probably not the endotoxins.
