Summary
This study looked at how not getting enough sleep changes two key hormones, cortisol and testosterone, and whether those changes lead to insulin resistance—a major cause of type 2 diabetes. Researchers also checked how sleep loss affects food cravings, mood, inflammation, and bone health. Forty healthy men aged 22 to 45 took part in this early-stage study.
