Abstract

Circadian disruptions may adversely affect glucose metabolism.

  • The circadian system regulates physiological processes, including glucose metabolism, on a roughly 24-hour cycle.
  • Misalignment of circadian rhythms can lead to negative health outcomes.
  • The review highlights the effects of circadian disruptions on glucose control in healthy individuals and those with type 2 diabetes.
  • Understanding how circadian disruption influences glucose metabolism could provide insights for enhancing glycaemic control.
