    .

    Type 2 diabetes is one of the major chronic diseases in the world including China, which brings a major disease burden to society and individuals
    .

    Compared with heredity, environmental factors and unhealthy life>
    .

    Therefore, identifying external factors closely related to the development of type 2 diabetes and changing or correcting them are of great significance for the overall prevention of type 2 diabetes
    .

    Recently, the journal Diabetologia published a research report entitled "Environmental risk factors of type 2 diabetes".
    Internal factors” conducted an evidence analysis and came to the following conclusions
    .

    Figure 1 The relationship between environmental factors and diabetes risk "High urbanization" and "sedentary" are important factors leading to increased diabetes risk Researchers believe that "high urbanization" is an important factor for increased diabetes risk: ➤ On the one hand, it brings Air and chemical pollution can increase the possibility of endothelial function changes, inflammation and insulin resistance; ➤Traffic noise can inhibit insulin secretion and reduce peripheral insulin sensitivity; ➤The heat island effect brought about by high urbanization can make people’s glucose metabolism worse, Decreased brown adipose tissue; ➤ Increased nighttime light may also lead to increased blood sugar levels
    .

    In addition, the sedentary habits associated with poor economic status may lead to long-term stress in people's lives, and over time, the body may produce an inflammatory response that further increases the risk of diabetes
    .
