People born in summer are taller than those born in winter

Fall is the time to conceive if you want a tall child!

A study by Cambridge University found that babies born in the summer months are stronger and taller than their counterparts. The research, conducted on 450,000 Britons, found that pregnant mothers who absorb more health-boosting Vitamin D from sunshine in their second and third trimesters give their babies a head-start in life.

Another finding was that girls born in the summer started puberty later, an indication of better health in adulthood. It was found that the early onset of puberty put girls at a higher risk of heart disease and diabetes.
