Feed the nursing mother, thereby the infant
The Journal of Pediatrics
|April 1, 1976
A successful attempt to improve nutritional status of infants by supplementing their mothers' diet is described. The habitual diet of a chronically malnourished woman whose milk production was insufficient to feed her newborn infant was supplemented with extra calories. An increase in milk production and in the infant's weight was rapidly obtained.
