Article Synopsis
- The study examined the docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) levels in the breast milk of 100 Filipino women and how their diet influenced these levels.
- Researchers used food records and questionnaires to assess the women’s dietary habits and collected milk samples using a specialized breast pump.
- Results indicated an average DHA level of 188.34 micrograms per milliliter of milk, linking higher protein intake in the subjects’ diets to increased DHA levels in their breast milk.
