Your birth month influences more than just your zodiac sign—it may signal certain health patterns.
Birth Month Linked to Disease Risks
Columbia University researchers analyzed 1,600 diseases across 1.7 million patients, uncovering seasonal patterns in disease prevalence.
Key Findings by Birth Month:
Asthma is more common among those born in October or July. ADHD rates are higher for November births. March babies face elevated heart disease risk. Born in May? You have the lowest overall disease odds.
The Impact is Limited
These links are statistically modest. Your diet, exercise habits, and lifestyle choices far outweigh birth month in determining health.
