Diabetes, a major non-communicable disease, is developing by people in alarming rate around the world. It’s also making people vulnerable to other deadly diseases. In the study, we gathered the evidence of diabetes prevalence in both urban and rural setting with the reasons behind it. We analysed different recent articles and news to get the today’s driving reasons behind diabetes and divided the diabetes increasing causes in four sections: climate change, food adulteration, fast-food, and physical activity. We showed that urbanization is closely related to climate change which in turn increase the surrounding temperature and interrupt fresh food production. Main reason behind food adulteration is gaining more profit and fast-food trend is increasing exponentially among young generations. At the same time, urban people, especially the girls are lacking physical activity and more prone to develop diabetes disease. We have discussed the problems behind Bangladesh’s current diabetes rate and suggested feasible solutions for it.
