A study by the University of Monash, Australia, and the Melbourne International Diabetes Research Institute showed that children with diabetes are related to the toxic components contained in certain vegetables.
Researchers have found that certain vegetables that are infected with a microorganism in the soil can produce a chemical toxin that harms the body's pancreas, destroys insulin-producing cells, and causes diabetes. This toxin is not harmful to most healthy people, but people with a type I diabetes genetic factor are very sensitive to it and may induce diabetes.
About 150,000 people have type 1 diabetes in Australia, and the cause of the disease has not yet been determined. The president of the Australian Diabetes Board said that the above research results are "encouraging" and provide good clues to find out the cause of the disease. However, it may take quite a while to apply it in clinical treatment.
