"Short Sleep Duration, Irregular Sleep Patterns, and Type 2 Diabetes Risk"
TL;DR Summary
A cohort study of 247,867 adults from the UK Biobank found that habitual short sleep duration, particularly less than 6 hours daily, was associated with a higher risk of developing type 2 diabetes (T2D) even among those with healthy dietary habits. While adherence to a healthy diet was linked to reduced T2D risk, the increased risk associated with short sleep duration persisted. The study highlights the importance of understanding the interplay between sleep duration, dietary habits, and T2D risk for public health and diabetes prevention strategies.
