A new study published in Science reveals that babies born during WWII rationing in the UK had a notably lower long-term risk of chronic health conditions.
The researchers found that individuals who experienced sugar rationing in childhood exhibited a 35% reduced risk of diabetes and a 20% reduction in high blood pressure.
Analysis of health data indicated that being born during wartime rationing yielded a delayed onset of diabetes and high blood pressure by several years in adulthood.
According to study co-author Tadeja Gračner, early dietary exposure to sugar could shape future eating habits, ultimately influencing long-term health.
