Breastmilk Biomes | Dr. Meghan Azad | Season 3, Ep. 3

Human milk contains prebiotic sugars, antibodies and live microbes, all of which can influence the gut microbiome of babies. I speak with Dr. Meghan Azad from the University of Manitoba about her research on human milk and the infant gut microbiome.
