In recent years, it’s increasing attentionabout the relationship between the interactionof diabetes with sleep disorders, especially thenight-eating syndrome (NES), which can be characterizedas a daily food intake delay of circadianrhythm while normal sleep. NES prevalence of diabetesis approximately 9.7%.Increase of food consumptionat night in patients with type 2 diabetescan be associated with the eating disorders syndromeand have negative influence to the therapeutic processof this group of patients. Abnormal eating behaviorassociated with the observance of dietary witha low content of easily digestible carbohydrates, lowphysical activity, lack of systematic monitoring ofblood glucose levels in the blood can lead to thedisturbance of blood sugar levels, increase complicationsand therapeutic difficulties. It is importanttherefore NES diagnosis in this patient group andthe corresponding modification of drug and nutritionaltherapy. (Diabet. Klin. 2012; 1, 1: 17–24)
