Summary

This study looked at whether providing healthy Mediterranean-style meals to mothers with obesity could change the makeup of their breast milk. 32 moms who were exclusively breastfeeding received these meals for 4 weeks. Researchers measured changes in breast milk fat and tracked infant growth to see if the diet had an effect.
