Wake up to your risks for knee replacement (A Roizen article; mentions circadian rhythms)

There’s a trigger of knee and hip osteoarthritis (OA) and pain — a disrupted circadian rhythm, AKA unhealthy sleep patterns.

Your circadian rhythms impact sleep-wake patterns, hormone release, metabolism and your risk for obesity (a major cause of inflammation and osteoarthritis), and it turns out, help your body maintain and repair cartilage and other joint tissues.

Interfering with circadian rhythms can bring you to your knees — literally. A study in Arthritis Care & Research shows that folks who get less than six hours of sleep nightly are 41% more likely to have knee osteoarthritis and 31% more likely to have a total knee replacement (TKR). Folks with insomnia have a 34% higher risk of OA and a 40% increased risk of a TKR. Nightshift workers are also affected; it was found to increase their risk of TKR by 28%.

If you have OA and your sleep cycle is off-kilter, building muscle strength with power training or doing interval training plus sleep therapy (usually based on cognitive-behavioral therapy) helps achieve sounder, more regular sleep. GLP-1s may also help
