Expert: Moon Phases Don't Significantly Affect Blood Sugar

Some people believe the moon's phases might affect blood sugar.

However, an expert says there's no proof.

Your blood sugar is mostly affected by what you eat, how active you are, how stressed you are, and any medicines you take.

Your body has a 24-hour clock that controls hormones like insulin, which manages blood sugar.

If you don't sleep well or eat at odd times, your blood sugar can change.

Studies haven't found clear blood sugar differences during moon phases for people with or without diabetes.

Focusing on healthy habits is much more important than tracking the moon.
