NNIW102 - Session 3 - Ep.15 - Feeding in infancy and early childhood: preventive opportunities
Update: 2025-01-09
Description
Dr. Berthold Koletzko discusses how optimizing infant and young child feeding reduces the risk of non-communicable diseases. In numerous studies, breast milk’s lower protein content is a proposed mechanism in lowering childhood obesity risk. Reducing protein intake in formula-fed infants can significantly reduce their risk of obesity at school age. Limiting cow’s milk consumption and promoting exclusive breastfeeding help prevent rapid weight gain and obesity in children. These strategies, alongside proper weaning and nutritional education, support optimal growth trajectories and long-term health outcomes.
