New Study Shows Link Between Diet and Diabetes

A study in Finland found that children who are genetically predisposed to type 1 diabetes might be more likely to develop the disease if they eat certain foods.

Bananas, oats, and yogurt were linked to an increased risk, while berries like strawberries and blueberries seemed to provide protection.

The researchers believe that pesticides found in some fruits may play a role in this association, but more research is needed to confirm this.

It's important to note that these findings are preliminary and don't necessarily mean that children should avoid these foods altogether.
