Researchers have claimed that a potent sleep hormone could hold the key to beating diabetes.
They believe that by taking a daily supplement containing melatonin, people could help protect themselves against the devastating condition, the Daily Express reported.
The supplement is already available on prescription to treat insomnia.
Researchers from a Boston hospital found that women with low levels of melatonin in their body were more than twice as likely to develop Type 2 diabetes as those with high levels.
