Study Links Food Additive Mixtures to Elevated Diabetes Risk
A recent study published in PLOS Medicine suggests that consuming combinations of common food additives could incrementally increase the risk of developing Type 2 diabetes. Conducted by researchers from Université Sorbonne Paris Nord and the French National Institute of Health and Medical Research, the study analyzed data from over 108,000 French adults who participated in the NutriNet-Santé study. This longstanding research initiative explores various food-health connections. The findings highlight that while individual additives have been tied to several health issues previously, this research points to the potentially heightened risk posed by mixtures more commonly found in today’s diets.
