🍼 Breast milk sugars (HMOs) vary based on genetics and birth conditions. In a multi-ethnic Asian cohort, ~70% of mothers were “secretors” (linked to FUT2 genetics 🧬), shaping key HMOs like 2’-FL. Preterm birth also altered early milk composition.

🤱 Many newborns need supplementation in their first days of life.
This study found that mothers who chose donor human milk over formula felt less stress, better mental well-being, and more peace of mind while establishing breastfeeding 💛

Low-SES mothers of color had 90% lower odds of breastfeeding at discharge vs. high-SES white mothers — and stress, social support & employment didn't explain the gap. Race SES together drive breastfeeding inequity. Systemic change is needed. 🤱

Scientists have developed a faster, scalable way to isolate protective nanoparticles from donor human milk potentially turning them into life-saving supplements for preterm infants at risk of NEC. 4x more efficient. Half the time. Huge implications. 🍼🔬
