Comparative Analysis of Breastfeeding and Infant Formulas: Short‐ and Long‐Term Impacts on Infant Nutrition and Health

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 9, September 2025.
Breastfeeding provides various benefits, such as supporting the immune system and promoting brain and physical development. Infant formulas are a viable alternative to support growth when breastfeeding is not feasible. The review emphasizes that both methods are important and calls for personalized feeding guidance based on the mother's health, living ...

Lactoferrin induces concentration-dependent functional modulation of intestinal proliferation and differentiation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Human milk stimulates intestinal development through the effects of various moieties. Lactoferrin (LF) is a glycoprotein of human milk whose concentration is highest in colostrum decreasing in mature milk. LF promotes enterocyte growth in intestinal cell

High frequency of lactose intolerance in a prehistoric hunter-gatherer population in northern Europe

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2010
Background Genes and culture are believed to interact, but it has been difficult to find direct evidence for the process. One candidate example that has been put forward is lactase persistence in adulthood, i.e. the ability to continue digesting the milk

Strain-level analysis of Bifidobacterium spp. from gut microbiomes of adults of differing lactase persistence genotypes

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2020
One of the strongest associations between human genetics and the gut microbiome is a greater relative abundance of Bifidobacterium in adults with lactase gene (LCT) SNPs associated with lactase-non persistence (GG genotypes), versus lactase persistence ...
