Diabetes and Air Pollution [PDF]

Diabetes Care, 2002
The prevalence of diabetes has risen substantially in the past decade. This increase has been linked to an “epidemic” of obesity (1). However, environmental toxins, most notably dioxins, have also been suggested as contributing factors. Because direct exposure data, in the form of measured levels of toxicants in blood, etc., are not yet available from
