Effects of Maternal Diet on Infant Health: A Review Based on Entero-Mammary Pathway of Intestinal Microbiota.

Research has shown that intervening in a mother's diet during breastfeeding can affect the composition of the mother's gut microbiota, thereby regulating the microbiota of breast milk and infant intestines, and is closely related to infant health.
