Breast-feeding benefits your baby
A new study out of Developmental Medicine and Child Neurology discusses the benefits of two essential fatty acids (EFAs) that exist in breast milk. Research out of Retina Foundation in Dallas, Texas suggests that these EFAs may be beneficial to the intellectual development of babies.
When the docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and arachidonic acid (AA) were added to baby’s formula, the infants who used this formula scored higher than average on the Baley Scales of Infant Development test— 105.6 compared with the 100 average.
