“…It is well known that the exposure to different substances present in the environment can affect the ability of the human body to maintain glucose homeostasis, thus possibly contributing to the onset of diabetes or to the worsening of the metabolic condition in people already suffering from the disease. In recent years, several review and meta-analysis studies have summarized the scientific knowledge on the issue, focusing specifically on the effect of several environmental factors and compounds in the most common types of diabetes, i.e., type 1 diabetes [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 ], type 2 diabetes [ 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 ], and gestational diabetes [ 37 , 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 , 43 , 44 , 45 , 46 , 47 ]. In addition, several studies went into more detail about the relationships between environment and diabetes, focusing on specific etiological factors of diabetes.…”
