Feeding decisions in the NICU are critical—especially for very low birthweight preterm infants. Both milk source (mother’s own vs. donor milk) and fortifier type (human- vs. bovine-derived) play a role, but which factor has the greatest impact on gut health?
Join Dr. Meghan Azad for this evidence-based session that explores how these choices influence the gut microbiome, gut inflammation, and growth outcomes. You’ll gain insights from new research showing that milk source is more strongly associated with microbiome composition and inflammation than fortifier type—information that can guide feeding practices and family counseling.
