Surely eating refined sugar and junk food doesn't help, but a new discovery incriminates a common plastic component as a prime causoitive factor for diabetes:
Here's an excerpt:
"Exposure to small amounts of an ingredient in polycarbonate plastic may increase a person's risk of diabetes, according to a new study in mice.
"The synthetic chemical called bisphenol-A is used to make dental sealants, sturdy microwavable plastics, linings for metal food-and-beverage containers, baby bottles, and numerous other products. When consumed, the chemical can mimic the effects of estrogen. Previous tests had found that bisphenol-A can leach into food and water and that it's widely prevalent in human blood.
The newfound contribution of the chemical to insulin resistance, a precursor to diabetes, might partially explain the global epidemic of that disease, says Angel Nadal of Miguel Hernández University of Elche in Spain, who led the new study."

Wasn't it just a few years ago that a doctor in Australia suddebly discovered the real cause of ulcers to be a bacterum but had to infect and cure himself to get anyone to listen?
I fear these guys in Spain may be a loinely voice for awhile.
