Latest researches say that,it is living in poverty that can double or triple the likely hood of developing diabetes.

rsearchers have analysed two sets of data,canadian community health survey and national health population health survey,published in journal "Health Policy".

Generally speaking, subjects who lived in poverty during 12 yr. study period had a41%geater chance of developing disease.

What it is exactly about living in poverty that contributes to type 2 diabetes_

__there is chronic stress of low income that can adversely affect health. The strain of being short on money and living in inadequate housing, can spike levels of cortisol.Prolonged elevated levels can cause highblood sugar

levels.

__Nutritional levels-malnutrition,deficiency of multiple vitamins and minerals are all contributory factors,

Low birth weight,deprivation as a youngster raises a childs risks apart from other conditions, of diabetes.

In nut shell prolonged systematic stress and lack of its control eventually leads to higher cortisol levels among other things and this literally messes up the ability of body to ese available insulin.

High levels of stress hormone (cortisol) is one of the biggest cause of type2 diabetes and CVD.

Only because links are lengthy and to pick out important points is time consuming affair.When a link is posted in reply then before responding it becomes imperative to go through that link.
