Could Intake Of Cowmilk In Infants Lead To Type 1 Diabetes?
My son is only two years old and he has detected IDDM (type 1 diabetes) just one months ago. I have gone through a study which speaks primary cause of type 1 diabetes is taking of cow milk instead of mother milk. Can by serving mother milk, his remained beta cells can be protected?

Hi, there are some studies which suggests association of cow milk and Type 1 diabetes mellitus but these studies are premature and a concrete proof is not present yet. Take care.
