Shift workers 'face type 2 diabetes risk'
Type 2 diabetes is more common in people who work shifts, a large international study suggests.

It is thought that disruption to the body clock affects waistlines, hormones and sleep - which could increase the risk.
Diabetes UK said shift workers should eat a healthy balanced diet.
