The risk of diabetes goes up as we are around ambient or device light at night, and it accrues for what our eyes can see as even subtle light, through our eyelids.

Consider using an eye mask, black out curtains, etc. Also, reduce brightness of devices and lights and turn them all off, prior to sleep.

Who believes this crap? That light impacts blood sugar? Not sugar intake, but light.

Smells like bullcrap to me.

Right light will keep you awake which means you need snacks

Diabetes - at the speed of light!

Bad news for folks who sleep with a light on?

Or, you can resolve your chromium, vanadium, and potassium deficiencies and avoid it altogether, and/or heal yourself from it.

You could draw that conclusion if they had done an experiment. But they didn't.

What they found was some people who were exposed to light in the middle of the night developed diabetes. They night have been night workers. They might have been party people who stay up at night. They might have been people with insomnia.

If anyone wants to say that light exposure causes an increased risk of diabetes and very different kind of study needs to be done.

Be like a Mogwai and don’t expose yourself to “bright light.”
