Mammalian breast milk is a unique source of nutrition to provide care for infants in early life. And human milk is even more special! It is rich in precious nutrients that promote the rapid growth of the brain. This paper will discuss various nutrients in breast milk to help mothers better understand the importance of breastfeeding.

Guardian of brain development

Fatty acids in breast milk are the guardians of brain development, which can promote the rapid growth of baby's brain.

Easy to digest and absorb

The proportion of whey protein in breast milk is much higher than that in formula milk and milk, which makes breast milk easier to digest and absorb.

Inject increased energy

Special amino acids in breast milk inject growth energy into the baby's brain and body.

The best source of sugar

Lactose in breast milk is the best source of sugar, which not only gives breast milk sweetness, but also provides valuable energy for baby's brain development.

Ultra high bioavailability

Vitamins and minerals in breast milk have super high bioavailability, so that babies can better absorb them. For example, the absorption rate of iron in breast milk is as high as 50%-75%, which is much better than that of formula milk.
