The Maternal Gut Microbiome Has An Impact On Your Breastfed Baby?

  

When mom's gut is enriched in certain "good bacteria" (such as Bifidobacterium, Lactobacillus, and Prevotella), it is associated with beneficial immune outcomes in infants. 

  

Diets high in fiber and plant-based foods support beneficial maternal gut profiles, which in turn promote optimal infant immune development. 

 

Maternal gut microbes and their metabolites can modulate fetal immune development via the entero-mammary pathway, influencing breast milk composition and direct microbial transmission to the infant.
