First seen Apr 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 12, 2026 · Updated 11 times
Summary
This study looks at whether breastfeeding mothers who eat whole eggs pass along more brain-boosting nutrients (like choline and DHA) to their babies compared to mothers who eat only egg whites. About 84 mothers and their 3-month-old infants will take part over three months. Researchers will measure the babies' memory and development to see if whole eggs make a difference.
