This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing whether intensive counseling about diet and physical activity during infancy can help prevent the development of type 1 diabetes. Researchers will work with parents of infants who have a genetic risk for type 1 diabetes, giving them personalized guidance on feeding, nutrition, and activity to support their baby's health and potentially lower the risk of diabetes-related autoimmune changes.
Previous research shows that rapid growth and weight gain in early childhood are linked to an increased risk of developing type 1 diabetes in genetically vulnerable children. This study investigates whether careful guidance on diet and physical activity during infancy—the earliest stage—can prevent these harmful changes and protect babies from developing the condition.

If your infant is assigned to the intervention group, you will receive regular personalized counseling about diet and physical activity, with guidance on breastfeeding (ideally until 12 months), limiting protein intake, controlling milk product consumption, and ensuring vitamin D supplementation. You'll also receive age-appropriate advice on physical activity for your baby. The control group receives standard national childcare guidelines. Throughout the study, your child will have their growth, metabolism, and blood markers monitored to track any changes related to type 1 diabetes risk.
