Early infant feeding and risk of type 1 diabetes mellitus—a nationwide population‐based case–control study in pre‐school children

Abstract: Our findings indicate that infant feeding is associated with type 1 diabetes risk and that a considerable part of new type 1 diabetic cases is potentially preventable.

“…Although we found evidence (p=0.03) of a linear increase in the risk of diabetes by on average 3% per 500 g, this was subject to heterogeneity (I 2 =35%, p=0.03); moreover, Fig. 1 revealed a number of studies [9,18,31,43] which did not seem to conform to a linear trend. Table 2 shows the overall results for birthweight before and after adjustments for potential confounders.…”

“…40,41 Diabetes Up to a 30% reduction in the incidence of type 1 diabetes mellitus is reported for infants who exclusively breastfed for at least 3 months, thus avoiding exposure to cow milk protein. 13,42 It has been postulated that the putative mechanism in the development of type 1 diabetes mellitus is the infant' s exposure to cow milk β-lactoglobulin, which stimulates an immune-mediated process crossreacting with pancreatic β cells. A reduction of 40% in the incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus is reported, possibly reflecting the long-term positive effect of breastfeeding on weight control and feeding self-regulation.…”

“…Several studies also supported the protective effect of breastfeeding against the development of type I diabetes (17,51). Meyer et al (52) showed in their study of 167 adolescents that breastfeeding is a protective factor against type II diabetes in adolescents.…”
