General Note: Dioxin causes expensive disabilities like Diabetes and ADD/ADHD. Eliminate endocrine disruptors like dioxin and save $4,000/year/household on unnecessarily high Medicare and private medical insurance, disability taxes and extra income taxes to make up for taxes not paid by unnecessarily disabled people. |

Ref 12 NLM has 20 References to Diabetes toxicant Dioxin Diabetes is linked to dioxin. All Americans test positive for dioxin at levels linked to chronic conditions. (Another page, linked below, has more on diabetes and dioxin: "More on Diabetes") Length of exposure to dioxin and secondary toxins increase the probability of diabetes symptoms to appear. Some of us have more than the average exposure to endocrine disrupting chemicals. Costs ================== Diabetes cost is $1.3 trillion for existing cases in the US. (over patients' remaining lifetimes). Diabetes will double to $2.6 trillion cost by year 2010 as cases will double from 16 million to 32 million if we do not turn this increase around. (These figures are conservative if we factor in lost productivity and negative effects on families). Diabetes alone will bankrupt Social Security, Medicare and private health insurance and destroy the Defense Budget. Diabetes is an endocrine disruption condition linked to dioxin. You can read the summaries of research linking dioxin to diabetes on the US government supported PubMed system: Search for "diabetes dioxin" on PubMed [Nat.Library Medicine] =========================== http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?db=Pub Med [NLM address changed, revised 03/03/2000] Pesatori AC, et al.

PubMed is an experimental service of the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) at the National Library of Medicine (NLM). PubMed has been developed in conjunction with publishers of biomedical literature as a search tool for accessing literature citations and linking to their full-text versions at publishers' Web sites. PubMed searches the 8 million citations in MEDLINE supplemented by pre-Medline citations which do not yet have MeSH index terms and by citations supplied electronically by publishers. Abstracts are available for viewing by going to this search page, typing in "diabetes dioxin" and clicking on the author's names. =========================== ED Briefing Book Main Pages: | Endocrine Disruption Briefing Book | | Attachment List, ED Briefing Book | Attachment Pages: | ADD/ADHD | | Children-Developmental Damage | | Symptoms, Physical-Cognitive | | Diabetes | | Porphyria-LiverSpots | | Porphyria-Suppressed Detox | | Thyroid Disruptions | | Cancer, et al | | Cancer, et al | | Bethune School Dioxin | | Whitehouse School Scandal | | Belgium Govt.
