Endocrine Disruptors and Diabetes

Endocrine Disruptors and Diabetes

Endocrine disruptors are chemicals that interfere with the normal functioning of the endocrine system, which regulates hormone production and activity. Exposure to these disruptors, found in everyday products like plastics, pesticides, and personal care items, has been linked to an increased risk of developing diabetes. These chemicals can alter insulin sensitivity, promote fat accumulation, and interfere with glucose metabolism, contributing to the onset and progression of type 2 diabetes. Reducing exposure to endocrine disruptors is an emerging focus in preventing diabetes and other metabolic disorders.
