The impact of exclusive breastfeeding for 6 months and of complementary breastfeeding after 6 months on bone mineral density and bone remodeling
There was a significant physiological mobilization of bone mineral density in the lumbar spine, total body, and total proximal femur after six months of EBF. In the EBF+ group, even with continued complementary breastfeeding, densitometric results were higher than those observed at 6 months, indicating a continuous increase over time.
