Men who regularly skip breakfast are more at risk of developing diabetes, scientists have found.
Their study discovered that missing out on food first thing in the morning increases a man?s chances of getting the disease by more than 20 per cent, compared with men who routinely eat when they get up.
It follows previous research suggesting that breakfast is crucial to maintaining good health.
The latest results, from a major investigation involving 30,000 men, provide the strongest evidence yet that it can reduce the risk of diabetes.
They show that even men who are not overweight and may have a reasonably healthy diet the rest of the time could still be at risk if they miss breakfast.
