While previous research has linked #Sleep to metabolic health in middle-aged or high-risk individuals, this study shows that the same metabolic patterns apply to completely healthy young adults, for whom large blood sugar swings can eventually increase inflammation and the risk of obesity or diabetes. #Healthspan Advocates #Leverage Your Biology https://news.ku.dk/all_ne..

Researchers to teens: get to bed – it’s good for your blood sugar

If you’re 18, getting a bit more sleep could matter more than you think. New research from the University of Copenhagen and COPSAC shows that even in healthy young people, longer nights of sleep are linked to more stable blood sugar levels the next day. What’s more, the relationship appears to go both ways. The findings suggest that sleep may play an important role in our metabolism long before conditions such as diabetes develop.
