Purpose Of Review: To explore the relationship between the built environment and type 2 diabetes, considering both risk factors and policies to reduce risk. The built environment refers to the physical characteristics of the areas in which people live including buildings, streets, open spaces, and infrastructure.
Recent Findings: A review of current literature suggests an association between the built environment and type 2 diabetes, likely driven by two key pathways-physical activity and the food environment.
