Exposure to pesticides in food, air and water increases risk of type 2 diabetes, says new study | National Monitor

Quote:
Researchers discovered that people with higher concentrations of DDE – the main metabolite in the pesticide DDT – are four times more likely to develop type 2 diabetes than other people. The risk of type 2 diabetes is also linked to exposure to β-HCH (beta-Hexachlorocyclohexane), which is found in the formula of the pesticide Lindano.
