Özet
For term infants whose mothers are healthy and have a satisfactory dietary intake, breast milk is the ideal mode of nutrition. The recommendation is that infants up to the age of 6 months be solely breastfed, after which breastfeeding should continue alongside the introduction of solid food up to at least the age of 2 years. The composition of breast milk varies over the course of a single feed, and according to when in the day feeding occurs, as well as the stage of lactation. Alongside this intra-individual variation in composition, the composition varies from mother to mother and from population to population. Both the environment and the woman's genetics affect composition, as does whether the infant is a boy or girl, if an infection occurs, and any change in the mother's lifestyle, such as changes in diet [1]. © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2023.
