Well Yes Indeed, Sub-Standard Housing Would Increase The Risk Of Diabetes
Sub-standard housing more than doubles diabetes risk, a team of U.S. researchers found, but they are not exactly sure why.
Are you kidding me? Does anyone else think that the results of this study are self explanatory? Sub-standard housing usually means government assisted or “section 8″ housing, right? Well, the persons that qualify for this assistance have economical challenges that others do not have.
Understand this, in no way am I passing judgment or “putting” anyone down. Heck, my kids public school is Title One, but why would scientists be puzzled at the findings of something so obvious. Low income areas are also linked to higher blood pressure, higher cholesterol, more heart attacks and obesity.
Healthy food is expensive and pre-packaged or less nutritious choices are not. So yes, those that are on a very tight budget and live in sub-standard neighborhoods are concerned with putting food on the table, not necessarily what it is but that it is there. And I see nothing wrong with that, it is allocation of the funds that they have!
But for a group of US researchers to say, “and they don’t know why”… I mean come on people!
