A member asked:
Could chemical products used in processed foods be the cause of diabetes type 2?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Diabetes Type 2: Chemicals can cause problems, but it is more likely that the processed foods are spiking your blood sugar. When a machine processes food, there is very little digesting to do, so it often turns quickly into sugar when you eat it. Not good at all.
