People who get too little, or too much, sleep stand a greater risk of developing diabetes, according to a study published on the website of the journal Sleep Medicine.
Researchers at Canada’s Universite Laval who studied the habits of 276 volunteers over a six-year period determined that those who didn’t get seven to eight hours sleep a night were two and a half times more likely to develop a blood sugar abnormality that has been linked to type 2 diabetes.
Scientists were not able to determine the exact cause behind the findings of the study.
