Insufficient sleep may cause Diabetes!

www.DrWeigh.com

New evidence suggests that not only can lack of sleep lead to obesity, it can also lead directly to Type II Diabetes!

It seems that when you don't get enough sleep, your body needs needs more insulin to keep sugar levels normal. Lack of sleep impacts your central nervous system and your hormones, both of which play a large role in sugar regulation. Remain too tired and your insulin-producing cells stop functioning normally, causing high sugar levels and then diabetes.

There are also other, less direct, ways that lack of sleep leads to diabetes. Everybody know that you eat more when you are tired. Eating more leads to obesity which leads to Type II Diabetes.

But there is now evidence that sleep deprivation can lead to diabetes even in somebody who is not overweight.

Just another reason why EVERYBODY, regardless of weight, should eat a healthy diet.
