Study: Foods exposed to pesticides cause obesity and sugar

According to a study by a team of researchers at the National Institute of Agricultural Research in France, there is a link between exposure to pesticides and metabolic-related diseases such as obesity, especially among males compared with females.

Lawrence Pirastro, a French researcher at the institute, said she tested mice for a year. They were fed with food containing pesticides. It was noticed that male rats doubled their weight and showed signs of diabetes and increased fasting blood sugar. Her liver is high in sugars.

She added that for female rats they did not have any problems in this regard, due to the effect of the hormone "estrogen," which protected from the negative effects of exposure to insecticides.Study: Foods exposed to pesticides cause obesity and sugar
