A new study recently published in JAMA, tracked middle-aged and older adults across several years, examining patterns in sleep duration and bedtime habits. At the end of the study period, participants wore continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) for 14 days to assess how their long-term sleep behaviors related to blood sugar stability. They found that people with consistently shorter sleep and/or late bedtimes showed greater fluctuations in blood glucose throughout the day — even in the absence of diagnosed diabetes!!!!

A good night of sleep is, for so many reasons, paramount to our health. Here are some tips:

ESTABLISH A REGULAR SLEEP/WAKE CYCLE:
Go to bed and wake up at the same time each day, even on weekends.
AIM FOR 7-9 HOURS OF SLEEP.
CREATE A RELAXING BEDTIME ROUTINE:
Avoid caffeine and alcohol before bed.
Take a warm bath or shower.
Read, listen to calming music, or practice meditation.
Dim the lights in your bedroom.
Use an eye mask and earplugs to block out noise and light.
PREPARE YOUR BEDROOM FOR SLEEP:
Keep your bedroom cool, dark, and quiet.
Invest in a comfortable bed and pillows.
Remove electronic devices from your bedroom or turn them off before bed.
