【 摘 要 】

Human breast milk (HM) is the physiological nutrition during an infants’ first few months of life, a crucial period for immune system development, metabolic and endocrine programming for growth, development, and lifelong health. HM is a complex and variable mixture with a multitude of constituents each contributing either singly or in combination to health outcomes (1). This Research Topic aims to present recent research findings on the complex relationships between HM composition and health outcomes in children, with state-of-the-art reviews, systematic analysis of published data, providing a complete presentation of current knowledge in the field.
