Growth & Development

Breastmilk varies in terms of nutritional content. Thus, the macronutrient concentration of breastmilk were evaluated in a prospective, observational study involving 41 exclusively breastfeeding Filipino mothers between 21 days to 4 months of breastfeeding. This study details the changes observed in early lactation, especially given its evolution to mature milk and its adaptive nature.
