Night Owls at Risk for Metabolic Disorders

Men who are “night owls” have an increased risk of type 2 diabetes and general wasting of muscle mass than their “early-bird” counterparts, while women are more likely to have the metabolic syndrome if they are nocturnal than women who are not, new research shows.

The study was published in the April issue of the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism byJi Hee Yu, PhD, from Korea University College of Medicine, Ansan, and colleagues.

“To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to reveal an association between chronotype and sarcopenia or metabolic disorders at the population level,” they write.
