Does the Composition of Breast Milk in the First Week Postpartum Differ Due to Maternal Factors or Neonatal Birth Weight and Percent Fat Body Mass?
The composition of breast milk in the initial week following childbirth is predominantly determined by maternal factors. The relationship between selected macronutrients and neonatal percent fat body mass was found to be weak, yet the significance of this finding is unclear. Further research is required to ascertain the influence of maternal milk composition on early infantile nutritional programming.
