Question
How is pediatric diabetes caused?
Answer
The causes of Type 1 pediatric diabetes include viral infections, dietary factors, and genetic genes. Firstly, infections such as the common cold and mumps may be one of the factors leading to the disease. Secondly, in terms of diet, it is recommended to wait at least 8 months after a baby’s birth before introducing milk feeding to reduce the risk of diabetes. Lastly, genetics are involved, as the medical community believes that neonatal diabetes is related to genetic genes, and parents may have passed on pathogenic genes to their children.
