Your Birth Month - Your Health

a30.6.17.jpg
According to some researchers from Spain, a person's birth month may be linked to the chronic diseases that show up later in life.
The study, published on Medicina Clinica, looked for patterns between the birth months of 30,000 study participants and the risk of 27 chronic diseases. The outcomes seem to highlight a close link. For instance, men born in September were three times as likely to suffer from thyroid issues as men who had a January birth date while women born in July were 27 percent more likely to develop high blood pressure than women born in any other month.The team also uncovered some good news — like the fact that men born in June are 34 percent less likely to develop depression and women born in the same month are 33 percent less likely to suffer from migraines.
Why the link between birth month and chronic disease? That's one issue the researchers didn't resolve. It's possible that seasonal variations in daylight, sunshine and illness may impact the health of babies at critical points in their development. This might explain why September babies are the healthiest of all - after absorbing all of that summer sun and vitamin D in the womb?
