To the Editor: The early introduction of foods containing gluten or cereal before the age of 3 months is associated with an increased risk of islet autoimmunity in childhood [1, 2]. A pilot study called BABYDIET is currently underway to determine whether primary intervention through delayed introduction of dietary gluten is feasible and could reduce the incidence of islet autoimmunity in high-risk first degree relatives of patients with Type 1 diabetes. Newborn children are eligible if they are younger than 3 months and are offspring or siblings of patients with Type 1 diabetes and also have HLA genotypes that confer a high diabetes risk (DRB1*03-DQA1*0501-DQB1*0201/DRB1*04-DQA1*0301-DQB1*0302; DRB1*04-DQA1*0301-DQB1*0302/DRB1*04-DQA1*0301-DQB1*0302 or DRB1*03-DQA1*0501-DQB1*0201/ DRB1*03-DQA1*0501-DQB1*0201). The parents of all children are informed of the potential benefits of gluten avoidance in animal models of autoimmune diabetes and of the increased risk of islet autoimmunity found
