Breastmilk Composition Changes from Birth to Weaning


Listen Later

Welcome back to the Milk Minute Podcast! Today Heather and Maureen dig into how breastmilk composition changes from birth to weaning. They answer questions such as:

Why is colostrum different from other milk?

How does milk change for toddlers?

Should we worry about feeding milk from a different age?

Let’s dig into just how different each stage of milk is from another. This is a fun, sciencey episode where you can learn with your favorite podcast hosts about what makes human milk so special!
