New research done by Columbia University suggests the month and season you were born in has an impact on how likely you are to become sick.<\/h3>\n

Software was used to look through birth and medical records to see if there were connections and it found 55 diseases that had links to the month people were born.<\/p>\n

People born in May had the lowest risk of disease, but bad news if you were born in October – they have the highest.<\/p>\n

If you were born in summer you have a high risk of developing asthma, and if you were born in autumn, you’re more likely to be diagnosed with ADHD, viral infections, and acute bronchiolitis.<\/p>\n

Winter babies are likely to suffer from heart disease like hypertension, atrial fibrillation and atherosclerosis, while those born in spring are also likely to suffer from angina, or chest pain.<\/p>\n

But the good news is that Dr Nicholas Tatonetti, one of the authors of the study, said, “The risk related to birth month is relatively minor when compared to more influential variables like diet and exercise.” Phew!<\/p>\n
