12 Surprising Ways to Beat Diabetes
Steer Clear of Creepy Chemicals
Before
your toss a bottle of moisturizer or nail polish into your shopping basket,
check the label for any compound ending in “phthalate.” Phthalates are a group
of chemicals found in personal care products such as some soaps, hair sprays,
perfumes, moisturizers, and nail polishes that can mess with your hormone levels. People with higher
concentrations of phthalates in their bodies have a higher risk for developing
diabetes than those with lower levels of the chemical, according to recent
studies published in Diabetes Care and Environmental Health
Perspectives. Researchers suggest that some phthalates mess with the
production of insulin in the pancreas.
