‘Social Jet Lag’ Affects Risk of Type 2 Diabetes, Heart Disease



People whose underlying biological clock does not match the sleep hours imposed by modern work schedules have metabolic risk factors that may predispose them to a higher risk for type 2 diabetes and heart disease, according to a new study published online November 18 in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism.
The work is the first to link so-called “social jet lag” with increased metabolic risk in middle-aged adults. Social jet lag refers to the disconnect between a person’s natural circadian rhythm and the restrictions placed on it by social and work obligations.
