Are Expectant Mothers Preventing Type 1 Diabetes?

A new study from Sweden reports that mothers who ate vegetables every day decreased the risk of type 1 diabetes in their children. This is compared to mothers who ate vegies three to five times per week. This second group increased the risk of type 1 diabetes in their children by 70 per cent. 

So what do the vegies have to do with it? Fruits and vegetables contain powerful antioxidants called flavonoids. These flavonoids,"are suggested to be potentially therapeutic agents for type1 diabetes," say researchers. Linkoping University is conducting a population study called All Babies in Southeast Sweden (ABIS). This study was done in collaboration with the University.
