Researchers at the University of Colorado School of Medicine in Denver Colorado USA found, that the vitamin drops, usually used for children in the USA, which content vitamin E and other antioxidants, given as supplenemt to the nutrition, can play a protective role, and may prevent Type 1 diabetes.

Mrs. Jill N. Norris, Ph.D. from th University of Colorado School of Medicine in Denver found out, that a few vitamindrops could prevent Type 1 diabetes in children,  by prevention of the autoimmun process that will lead ot the onset of  diabetes. She said in other trials the researchers lookt to different facts, that might be the cause for the onset of diabetes in children but not to the protective role of Vitamin E or Vitamin D. Mrs Norris presentend her findings at he meeting of the American Diabetes Association in San Francisco im Juni 1996.

The fact, that children when feeded with a milligram of vitamin D or vitamin E will not develop a typ 1 diabetes is a very fascinating fact.

A  few drops of vitamins at the right moment in the life of a child may prevent a lifelong existing diabetes. Especially in families where the parents are diabetic the children should get the vitamine drops containing these two vitamins.
