Restricting sleep is known to be detrimental to glucose metabolism in healthy adults. Obesity is a condition associated with both lower sleep duration and poor glucose tolerance. Therefore, increasing sleep duration is a potentially novel therapeutic strategy for improving glucose metabolism in this population. The investigators will assess this by determining insulin sensitivity during a hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp before and after a sleep extension intervention in both the control and sleep extension groups.
