Diabetes may be caused by "sleeping"!

Sleep duration is actually related to diabetes? Today, let’s talk about the relationship between diabetes and sleep.

Research shows that people who sleep too long or too short for a long time have a significantly higher risk of developing diabetes than those who sleep normally.

Sleep more - "Sleeping in" can easily cause blood sugar disorders

It’s autumn and it’s inevitable to sleep in on weekends. Many people may have this habit. Generally speaking, sleeping in once in a while is not a problem for most people, but it is not that simple for people with diabetes.

Sleeping late may aggravate the condition and cause blood sugar to fluctuate.

Generally, blood sugar has several peaks, and 4 a.m. to 9 a.m. is the time when blood sugar is most likely to rise. If you don’t get up on time in the morning and don’t eat on time, the blood sugar pattern throughout the day will be completely disrupted, which can cause A significant increase in blood sugar increases the burden on the kidneys, which subsequently leads to fluctuations in blood sugar and increases damage to blood vessels.

Therefore, it is recommended that everyone should not sleep until the sun is shining, but wake up early and have a nutritious breakfast~

Sleep less - "Lack of sleep" will lead to impaired fasting blood sugar

If sleeping more is not enough, what if I stay up late? Nono’s answer four: Not even possible!

According to research, if you sleep for more than 8 hours, your risk of developing diabetes will increase three times, with the lowest risk being those who sleep 7 to 8 hours a night. If you sleep less than 6 hours, the risk of developing diabetes is about 2 times higher than that of a normal sleeper (7 to 8 hours)!

If you don't sleep well, not only will blood sugar rise due to the body's stress response, but it can also easily lead to high blood pressure, and it can also easily lead to internal heat or mental illness.

If you are still up at 1-2 o'clock in the middle of the night, hiding in bed playing with your mobile phone and giggling, then you need to worry, your body is undergoing the following changes:

1. Excessive norepinephrine secretion will cause vasoconstriction and increase blood pressure;

2. The sympathetic nerves of the hypothalamus are in an excited state. In this case, the secretion of catechol will increase and the secretion of insulin will be inhibited, which is not conducive to the metabolism of blood sugar, thus causing hyperglycemia.

If you have insomnia or stay up late for a long time, it can also cause neurasthenia, mental stress, and even depression, which is worse than diabetes.

Sleeping with the lights on - Sleeping with the lights on at night increases the risk of diabetes!

A study by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine shows that sleeping with lights on at night can easily induce type 2 diabetes.

This study released by the American Association of Sleep Medicine on June 5, 2018, analyzed 20 healthy adults aged 18 to 40, divided them into two groups, and conducted three days and two nights of testing.

One group of subjects slept in a completely dark room for two consecutive nights. The subjects in the second group slept in a dark room for the first night and a lighted room for the second night.

Finally, it was found that all subjects who slept in a lighted room for one night had significantly higher levels of insulin resistance. Insulin resistance is a reduced ability of the body's cells to respond to the hormone insulin.

So everyone must remember to turn off the lights when sleeping. It is not only good for health but also saves electricity. For the sake of your health, stop staying up late to watch TV shows and play on your phone! Developing a regular work and rest habit is more conducive to blood sugar control.
