Breast Milk versus Formula Milk and Neuropsychological Development and SleepA cohort study including 14000 newborns, about half of them were exclusively breast fed for the first four months of their lives, this percentage dropped down to about 4% by the end of the fourth month of age. One ...
BACKGROUND: Numerous studies have documented short- and long-term differences in growth and body composition based on whether an infant is breastfed or formula-fed. However, little is known about whether these differences result from the substance consumed (breastmilk vs. formula) or from the del...
The experience and health impact of feeding expressed breast milk versus feeding at the breast requires consideration of multiple dimensions (Fig. 7.14), including the extent to which the mother relies on the pump to extract milk, the proportion of infant feeds that are human milk, and the prop...
lipophilic and might therefore be better transported into breast milk. Only a few studies observing the concentrations of phthalates in infant formula are available so far (2018). Overall, the levels varied in German samples from 9.3 to 35.7ng/g for DEHP and 1.7 to 5.5ng/g for DnBP, while...
The current debate over the relative merits of breast versus formula feeding is not new. It dates back over three decades when it was first demonstrated that feeding of cow's milk formula to low birth weight infants provided higher protein intakes and resulted in better weight gain than ...

(infant 1 M, infant 6 M, mother 32 GW, mother 1 M, colostrum, and breast milk 1 M) and in IAP versus control, breastfeeding until 6 months and breastfeeding for less than 6 months were calculated using analysis of variance (ANOVA) and the resultingp-values were corrected ...
Transmission of HCV infection through breast milk has not been proved, and transmission rates seem similar in formula-fed and breast-fed infants. Published studies have not controlled for variables such as maternal HCV-RNA serum viral loads, amount of virolactia, exclusive or partial breastfeeding ...
It has been suggested that those initially breastfed have better vision and are less likely to be myopic in later life than are those who are formula fed (12, 13, 14, 15). The presence of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCPUFAs) in breast milk, which are needed for rapid ...
