Studies Confirm the Benefit of Sleep

For years we’ve discussed the link between rest and diabetes management. Recent studies suggest that healthy young individuals become more insulin resistant following sleep disturbances : For the study, nine volunteers spent two or three nights at a sleep lab on two visits.

No More Needles?

New technologies always seem to be just two years away : University of NSW PhD student Roderick Sih and his supervisor, Professor Neil Foster, are developing technology to deliver insulin orally and hope it could go on the market within two years. Especially when there is intellectual property the might attract investors: A global patent for ARISE insulin has been filed by New South Innovations, the commercial arm of the UNSW

Get a Good Nights Rest

We’ve pointed to the correlation between poor sleep patterns and the risk for developing diabetes. However, recent studies appear to be closer to pinpointing the mechanisms involved and provide further motivation for those with diabetes to prioritize their time in bed: Successive nights of disturbed sleep appear to put people at greater risk of developing type 2 diabetes, according to research in which scientists interfered with volunteers’ sleep patterns.
