Scientific Knowledge

Breast milk is the ideal nutrition for babies because it contains all the nutrients the baby needs for the first six months of life and helps them to grow up healthy. To support professionals like lactation consultants and medical staff in their work with expecting and new mums, we have compiled several articles on breastfeeding and breast milk.
