Or simply quit eating what is killing you?

Understand though. A nation of diabetic fat asses needs “sugar killers” and tricks to avoided making dietary changes.

That would be sensible advice, except for the fact that there are now substances that *induce* diabetes, despite diet.

For example, statin drugs used to treat high cholesterol (most of which is created by the liver, not from food), have a clear association with induced diabetes. A large study done in Finland showed an almost 50 percent increase above normal levels in those taking statin drugs.

A number of other drugs have been linked with an increased risk development of type 2 diabetes. Corticosteroids, Thiazide diuretics, Beta-blockers and Antipsychotics.

Phthalates and bisphenol A (BPA) — common chemicals found in soaps, nail polishes, hair sprays, perfumes, and moisturizers. Women with the highest levels of phthalates in their urine had a 70 percent higher risk of diabetes than women with the lowest levels of phthalates in their bodies.

Other chemicals that significantly increase the likelihood of induced diabetes include: Arsenic, PCBs, and Dioxins.

The artificial sweetener sucralose (Splenda) can adversely affect how some people metabolize sugar. It causes too much insulin to be secreted, which keeps fat from being broken down for energy, making it hard to lose weight. And chronically high insulin levels can lead to insulin resistance, a precursor to type-2 diabetes.
