Could Natural Light Be the Key to Preventing Type 2 Diabetes?

Exposure to natural light may help treat and prevent type 2 diabetes, according to a small study. The study found that people with type 2 diabetes had better blood sugar control when exposed to natural daylight than when exposed to artificial light. The researchers believe that exposure to natural light helps to regulate the circadian clock and metabolism, which may play a role in reducing the risk of type 2 diabetes.
