An international study has established a link between type 2 diabetes and advanced breast cancer.
It has been known for a while that being overweight puts post-menopausal women at greater risk of breast cancer.
But now it has been found that women who are resistant to insulin, or who are overweight, are 50 per cent more likely to be diagnosed with the cancer, and only when it is in its advanced stages.
The finding comes after an international research team followed more than 60,000 Swedish women over 20 years.
