Glycemic control in smokers and risk of type 2 diabetes

Year: 2016
Type: article
Abstract: Chronic cigarette smoking seems to markedly aggravate insulin resistance that elevates blood glucose.Weight gain usually follows the cessation of smoking, and increasingly, fear of weight gain discourages many smokers from attempting to quit.Yet, weight gain after quitting smoking has proved so unresponsive to preventive attempt as to suggest that weight control might even be incompatible with successful smoking cessation.However, recently featured review and research on smoking and diabetes concluded the evidence that smoking is associated with the preparation for the development of Type 2 diabetes.
