"Poor sleep often leads to poorer appetite control so people tend to eat more, and less sleep means more time awake to be able to eat. Scientists have discovered exactly how much sleep could help prevent type 2 diabetes. He explained that poor sleep can have a direct impact on hormone"
Scientists have identified an optimal sleep duration of seven hours and 18 minutes per night to reduce insulin resistance risk and prevent type 2 diabetes. Type 2 diabetes affects approximately 90 percent of the 4.6 million people in the UK with diabetes diagnoses. While obesity and high blood pressure are established risk factors, insufficient sleep has emerged as a significant contributor to insulin resistance. Research published in BMJ Open Diabetes Research & Care demonstrates that both excessive and insufficient sleep increase pre-diabetes risk. Poor sleep impairs appetite control, leading to increased food consumption, and reduces time available for metabolic recovery. Sleep deprivation directly impacts hormonal regulation, further contributing to metabolic dysfunction and diabetes development.
