A study published in Nature Medicine found that 14 million cases of type 2 diabetes were caused by poor diet that lacks whole grains or had too much-refined rice, wheat or processed meats linked to the disease.

Researchers at Tufts University analyzed the data from 184 countries between 1990 and 2018, revealing that more than 70% of new diagnoses in 2018 were believed to have been linked with unhealthy dietary patterns.
