A recent study from Uppsala University, published in JAMA Network Open, has found that adults sleeping between three to five hours per night are at an increased risk for type 2 diabetes. The research also indicates that maintaining a healthy diet alone is insufficient to counteract the negative effe

This cohort study analyzing data from 247 867 adults in the UK Biobank found that individuals sleeping less than 6 hours daily had a notably higher risk of developing T2D compared with those with 7 to 8 hours of sleep. Despite the association between healthier diets and reduced T2D risk, the increased risk associated with short sleep duration persisted even among adults with healthy eating habits.
