The Effects of Feeding Breast Milk at Different Temperatures on Newborns: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Current evidence indicates that administering breast milk at different temperatures does not produce clinically meaningful differences in short-term physiological parameters or clinical outcomes in newborns. Milk at room temperature, near-body temperature, or alternative warming methods appears to be equally well tolerated.
