Ways To Manage Diabetes #3

Get Plenty of Sleep

Skimping on rest could increase your chances of getting type 2 diabetes. In fact, just three consecutive nights of inadequate sleep can elevate a person's risk. Sleep deprivation seems to alter the sympathetic nervous system -- the body's stress-control center -- and hormonal balances, all of which affects glucose regulation.

Plus, the less you sleep, the more likely you are to overeat as you also crave more calories and carbohydrates to get a quick energy boost. Therefore, sticking to a regular schedule and getting enough sleep can help keep blood glucose at healthier levels.
