According to a report published in PubMed journal, babies who born under caesarean section have a 20% higher risk of getting type 1diabetes than the babies born naturally.

Type1 diabetes can start in early childhood and it is on rise in many European countries because of some unknown factors.

The researchers from Queen’s University Belfast worked on 20 previous studies and suggested that contact with hospital bacteria instead of material bacteria in delivery may be the real culprit.
