A new study finds that mixing up night shifts with day and evening work hours is associated with a higher risk of type 2 diabetes. Diabetes risk increased with longer stints working rotating night shifts: women who worked on that schedule for three to nine years saw a 20% increased risk of the disease, while women reporting rotating night shifts for 10 to 19 years had a higher 40% risk and those for 20 years or more, a 58% higher risk than women who only worked days or evenings. -Chanmun Jeong
