Certain Foods May Increase Diabetes Risk in Children

A new study suggests that children susceptible to type 1 diabetes may be more likely to develop the disease if they consume certain foods, including bananas, oats, and yogurt.

Conversely, eating strawberries and blueberries has been linked to a lower risk of type 1 diabetes.

The study, conducted in Finland, followed children from birth to age six and analyzed their dietary habits.

Researchers believe that the presence of pesticides in some fruits may explain these associations, although further investigation is needed to determine the specific factors involved.
