Sleep changes blood sugar more than you think

In this episode of the Diabetes Digital Podcast, Wendy and Jess talk about why sleep is one of the most overlooked factors in blood sugar management. They break down how poor sleep can impact insulin sensitivity, cortisol, hunger hormones, and overnight glucose trends, even when you’re doing “everything right” with food, movement, and meds.

You’ll hear both the science and the real-life side of sleep, including what they’ve seen with clients and in their own routines, plus practical ways to support better sleep.
