A new study has found a link between air pollution and the risk of developing Parkinson's disease and Type 2 diabetes. The study shows that people living in regions with median levels of air pollution have a 56 percent greater risk of developing Parkinson's disease compared to those living in regions with the lowest level of air pollution. Additionally, high insulin levels may be directly linked to pancreatic cancer, with people who have obesity and Type 2 diabetes having an increased risk. The study also found that for every 10μg/m3 increase in annual average PM2.5 level, the risk for diabetes increased by 22 percent.
