Where You Live Can Affect Your Risk for Diabetes

You can drastically reduce your risk of developing type 2 diabetes simply by choosing to reside in a neighborhood that promotes exercise and offers easy access to healthy foods. In fact, people who live in “healthy” neighborhoods that provide safe sidewalks, plentiful parks, and readily accessible fresh fruits and vegetables, along with dependable public transportation, are 38 percent less likely to develop type 2 diabetes than people who live in less healthy neighborhoods.

Amy Auchincloss, PhD, MPH, of Drexel University in Philadelphia, and colleagues, conducted a study of 2,285 people, ages 45 to 84, who were living in neighborhoods in Forsyth County, North Carolina, Baltimore, Maryland, and New York City/Bronx. The neighborhoods of the study participants were evaluated by making inquiries among residents as to whether taking a walk in their community was easy and pleasant, and whether or not local stores had a well-stocked variety of high-quality fruits, vegetables, and low-fat foods. Participants were also asked if it was common to see other residents exercising.

Findings showed that the average neighborhood scores were 3.68 for physical activity, and 3.36 for healthy foods. In addition, the research revealed that those people who were living in healthy neighborhoods were much less likely to develop type 2 diabetes after completion of the five-year cohort study that included controls for factors such as age, income, race, and education. During the five-year follow-up period, 10 percent of the study participants were diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.

12 Lip Balms with Best UVA Protection

Most people take for granted that lip balm works. Often, the brand and type is chosen primarily on the basis of texture, ease of application, and even flavor, though sometimes SPF (sun protection factor) comes into play. While protecting one’s lips from chapping should be important, UVA protection should also be taken under consideration when buying lip balm, since lips receive as much sun as the rest of the face.

A little known fact about sunscreen products, including lip balm, is that it is not regulated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), though the subject has been proposed and reportedly under consideration since 1978. So, while the government refuses to regulate companies that make such consumer products, there are advocacy groups that study said products and release statistics so the public can be aware.

One of those groups is the Environmental Working Group (EWG), a research organization founded in 1993 that employs a team of scientists, engineers, policy experts, lawyers, and computer programmers to study products. EWG often conducts its own laboratory tests and researches government data and scientific studies to put together consumer advocacy projects. Subsequently, the group then uses those studies to lobby Congress for policies that will better protect consumers.
