Diabetes - A Birth Defect?

[Margaret Diann]

... a birth defect from WWII chemical exposures? There were a lot of missiles and bomb fumes in the air in England, in Germany ... with rocket propellant fumes spaying back on Allied Forces!

Diabetes is a global health problem that is presenting a major medical challenge worldwide. It increases the risk of ill health and shortens life. In the UK alone, diabetes has been said to account for nine per cent of the annual NHS budget ? approximately ?5.2 billion a year.

This Fits my theory of birth defect from WWII chemical exposures

It makes more sense to me, to suspect it as a birth defect from the explosive chemicals such as 2-butoxyethanol that has been in use at least since the 1930's and exposure is as simple as getting the vapors in one's eyes.

It is the autoimmune metabolic dysfunction chemical which seems to get blood sugar out of balance. That is almost a first sign with acute exposure. But, since it is a teratogen, expect not only brain tumors and leukemia as birth defects (though late appearing) but also diabetes, Syndrome X and other things
