Insomnia linked to high insulin resistance in diabetics

[Northerner]

Did you know there was an online news site called Shift Work Disorder News? You do now! There's no mention of Dawn Phenomenon though, which I would think is probably a factor, as much as insulin resistance, if the body feels it is ready to wake up several times during the night. I know this happens to me occasionally.

Interesting - I tend to find it more difficult to sleep in the days leading up to my periods.
My Blood Sugars tend to increase then - so I am having greater insulin resistance at that time due to hormones.
