What roles do changing seasons play in your health?
A Harvard study, which monitored the development of 21,000 boys and girls across the world, showed that there were large seasonal variations when it came to weight, length, height, head size, and mental ability in kids born in winter.Winter babies are prone to infections
Experts say that, unlike spring and summer babies, children born between November and February often have their first mild respiratory infection at just a few weeks old. This usually results in a stuffed nose and fever, but it will not have any serious consequences. It is also said that early contact with germs can strengthen the immune system, and so, winter babies are less likely to catch a cold later on.However, it is not that simple. Some infections are not so harmless. A severe RSV infection in the first year of life has been shown to increase the risk of asthma.
Lack of vitamin D
As winter approaches, the human body often produces less vitamin D, which is needed during the darker months of the year. Vitamin D is responsible for ensuring that the bones absorb sufficient calcium and gain hardness. While babies in the first year of life are recommended to take vitamin D supplements, it is also extremely important for unborn babies so that their skeleton can form properly and their immune system can mature.If a child does not receive enough vitamin D in the womb, it could raise the risk of contracting multiple sclerosis, among other issues. A vitamin D deficiency before birth can also have an effect on mental health, often leading to a high risk of developing autism, schizophrenia, or psychosis.
