Abstract
Objective: To correlation between life style, diet and environmental pollution in type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Material and Methods: It was a cross sectional study of comparative data analysis of glycemic levels among
population regarding environment, diet and physical activity. Sample size calculated was 228.
Results: The study included 228 participants who were randomly sampled from Services Hospital Lahore
including patients as well as the accompanying attendants coming in from urban and surrounding rural area
of Lahore. The variables specified for research were diet and lifestyle of a subjects from both urban and rural
setups. The final result showed that 64% (147 out of 228) participants were normoglycemic, 6% were Pre
diabetic and 36% (81 out of 228) were of type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Conclusion: Diet and physical activity were the main cofactors along with pollution scenario, having an
etiological role in type II Diabetes Mellitus.
Keywords: Diabetes mellitus, pollution, organic diet, physical activity.
