That trip to the bathroom at 3 a.m. could be telling you something about your insulin. A large study of national health survey data found that people with more insulin resistance were more likely to wake up at night to urinate, which doctors call nocturia.
When insulin stays high through the day, your body hangs on to salt and water. Once you lie down, that fluid shifts back into your blood and your kidneys go to work, so you wake up. Insulin resistance can be reversed, and a few simple habits help: stop eating a few hours before bed, skip the sugar and refined carbs at night, walk for ten minutes after dinner, and build your plate around protein.
Let's get healthy together.
Science, not medical advice.
