Özet
In most cases, human milk is the healthiest option for babies and young children [1]. Human milk also offers immunologic protection against numerous childhood illnesses [2]. The American Academy of Pediatrics stresses the benefits of breastfeeding and suggests that it be practiced for at least 12 months, and for as long beyond that as the mother and child choose [3]. Human milk is known to defend against infections thanks to the presence of a number of molecules and chemicals that have antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, and bioactive properties [1]. Mucosal maturation, gut microbiota balance, antigen attachment disruption, newborn immune system stimulation, and reduced exposure to pathogens via food antigens are some potential ways nursing protects against infectious illness [4, 5].
