Abstract

BACKGROUND: Observational evidence suggests that having been breastfed in infancy may reduce the prevalence of type 2 diabetes in later life. OBJECTIVE: The objective was to examine the influence of initial breastfeeding on type 2 diabetes and blood glucose and insulin concentrations. DESIGN: A systematic review of published studies identified 1010 reports; 23 examined the relation between infant feeding and type 2 diabetes in later life or risk factors for diabetes. Risk factors in infants were examined separately from those in children and adults. All estimates were pooled by using fixed-effect models; differences
