Reported 9 months ago

A breakthrough study by a research team from the California Institute of Technology confirms that regularly drinking beverages or water from plastic bottles may increase the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. The study, published in the journal 'Diabetes,' found that the chemical substance BPA in plastic bottles reduces insulin sensitivity in the body, leading to a higher likelihood of diabetes. Researchers observed decreased insulin responses in participants who consumed BPA, emphasizing the importance of using stainless steel or glass bottles for drinking water to reduce exposure to BPA and lower the risk of diabetes.
