Letter: Breastfeeding can reduce diabetes

By Janet Novielli
This is only somewhat related but it concerns me that with such high rates of diabetes in this area there is not more emphasis on mothers breastfeeding their babies which can decrease the incidence of Type one diabetes in the child....and recently on a medical segment on Sundays it was stated that IF a mother nurses her baby for 1-2 months it can reduce the mother's risk of diabetes by 50%. Seems to me this would be a wise idea for both mother and child! - Janet Novielli
