Summary

This study looked at 103 research articles to compare the nutrients in breast milk from mothers who gave birth early (preterm) versus full-term. The goal was to see if there are differences in energy, protein, fat, and other nutrients. This is a review of existing studies, not a treatment trial, so no participants received any intervention.
