Another reason not to sleep late at night is added.
Researchers at Rutgers University in New Jersey have found that owls are at a higher risk of diabetes and heart disease. Staying up all night reduced your ability to use fat for energy. On the 21st (local time), the overseas media TechExploreist reported.
The sleep cycle according to waking up and going to bed causes metabolic differences and changes energy sources. A study from Rutgers University suggests that people who sleep late at night tend to have a reduced ability to use fat for energy, increasing their risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
On the other hand, those who woke up early in the morning used more fat as an energy source. They were more likely to be active during the day. You use less fat as an energy source during rest or exercise at night.
The study was conducted by monitoring activity patterns of 51 participants for a week. I had to fast all night while following a calorie and nutritionally controlled diet. To find the energy source, moderate and high intensity exercise was performed.
They found that people who wake up early in the morning burn more fat for energy during exercise and rest. In addition, they showed a more sensitive response to insulin. Conversely, people who slept late at night were insulin resistant, meaning their body prefers carbohydrates over fat for energy and needs more insulin to lower blood sugar levels. Ultimately, it increases the risk of type 2 diabetes and heart disease.
“This shows that our body’s circadian rhythm can affect how we use insulin,” said Stephen Mullin, a professor at Rutgers University. “People who get up early in the morning were physically more active and had a higher level of health,” he added.
Owls who sleep late at night may also have other health problems.
1. A study from the University of Oulu, Finland found that sitting time is more than 30 minutes a day.
2. UK Biobank data study found that owls had a higher prevalence of mental disorders, neurological disorders, stomach and respiratory disorders, and even higher mortality rates.
3. According to the Finnish National Research Institute, owls eat more foods high in sugar and fat. That is, eating an unhealthy diet.
4. According to Northwestern Feinberg University School of Medicine, owls were 10% more likely to die sooner than morning people.
