Recent study aimed to assess the impact of prenatal education (PE) on exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) continuation among mothers in Quito, Ecuador, and identify modifiable risk factors associated with EBF discontinuation. PE has been proposed as a strategy to enhance EBF rates, although existing evidence on its effectiveness remains inconclusive. The study was conducted in Quito’s […]
Researchers have found in a new study that introduction of baby formula within the first three days of life significantly increases the risk of developing peanut and multiple food allergies. The study emphasizes the vital role of colostrum, rich in immune-boosting bioactive compounds in supporting infant gut and immune health, benefits that are absent in […]
A new prospective cohort study has found that children born with low birth weight face an elevated risk of developing bruxism, a condition marked by teeth grinding or clenching during childhood. The findings indicate that while low birth weight itself heightens susceptibility, the relationship is not explained by exclusive breastfeeding, pacifier use, or mental health […]
A Mediterranean-style diet, rich in fibre, vegetable proteins and healthy fats, benefits maternal health during pregnancy and breastfeeding. In addition to improving intestinal function and mucosal immunity, it also prevents fat accumulation and optimizes the composition of the microbiota in the digestive system. In babies, this maternal dietary pattern helps to reduce the incidence and […]
A new study published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology found women who breastfed after breast cancer did not face an increased risk of recurrence or contralateral disease. Many women were also able to breastfeed successfully after breast-conserving surgery, including from the affected breast. The POSITIVE trial evaluated the safety of temporarily interrupting endocrine therapy (ET) […]
Breastfeeding within the first 4 to 6 months of life has been identified by researchers as being associated with a reduced risk of central precocious puberty (CPP) in children of both genders. CPP is the condition of early onset of puberty at an unnatural age, and it has been on the rise globally, triggering concerns […]
USA: Researchers have found in a new study that inserting a contraceptive implant within the first 24 hours postpartum is safe for breastfeeding individuals. This finding supports users, healthcare providers, and hospitals in offering placement at a time that best meets the user’s needs. The study was published online in the American Journal of Obstetrics […]
“Lack of breastfeeding, low birth weight and maternal smoking during pregnancy are factors that can be used to react very early, even before the child shows symptoms,” says the study’s lead author, doctoral researcher Xu Zong from the University of Helsinki. The study, published in the Journal of Affective Disorders, used artificial intelligence to analyse […]
