I just received the new Paleo Diet update newsletter, and it had an item on Type 1 diabetes. I have to admit, I am not that knowledgeable about this condition. From the little I've read, there seems to be a large genetic component to it. However, Cordain points out in the newsletter the possible role of milk as a factor.
The references for milk as potentially being a contributing factor to Type 1 diabetes are here. The update also points out that Vitamin D is a contributing factor as well. It will be interesting to see how this research develops.
