Boston: According to a new study, women who wake up late at night increase their risk of developing diabetes by almost 20 times.
Researchers at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston, USA, analyzed data from 64,000 middle-aged nurses between 2009 and 2017.
In the review, researchers found that women who slept late at night and woke up late in the morning had a higher risk of developing diabetes than women who woke up early in the morning.
Experts said that women who sleep late at night are also more likely to engage in other unhealthy lifestyle habits such as less exercise.
In this data, these nurses reported their sleep habits, diet, weight and BMI, sleep hours, smoking, alcohol consumption and physical activity.
The researchers also examined the women’s medical records to determine whether they had diabetes.
11 percent of all women in the study were found to have the evening chronotype (people who are active in the evening and go to bed late at night), while 35 percent had the morning chronotype (people who wake up early in the morning and go to bed early at night). people) emerged. The remaining individuals were classified as intermediate, meaning they were identified as neither morning chronotype nor evening chronotype.
The analysis showed that the evening genotype was associated with a 19 percent increased risk of diabetes, the researchers said.
