In developed countries, phthalate exposure is ubiquitous. Previous studies have shown an association between phthalate levels and health effects. To test associations between phthalate exposures, estimated from urinary phthalate metabolites, and insulin resistance, β-cell function and glucose control. Data were obtained from a cross-sectional, nationally representative study; the Canadian Health Measures Survey (CHMS, 2009-2011). Participants under the age of 12, those with diabetes, who were pregnant or who had not fasted overnight were excluded. Fasting blood glucose, insulin, and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1C) levels were measured in a subset of participants, and urine was collected for creatinine and phthalate metabolites. We tested associations between these variables using linear regression analysis. Of 4437 participants (12-79years old), 2119 had fasting glucose measurements and at least one phthalate metabolite above detection limits. MBzP, MCPP, MEHP, MEHHP, MiBP, and the sum of DEHP metabolites were positively associated with increased HbA1C (p
