The association of maternal diet and polyamines in human milk: a study among Malay ethnic mothers in Kuantan, Malaysia

Human milk contains a lot of nutrient and it offers advantages to infant age less than six months. Polyamines in milk accelerate the in-fants’ gut maturation and protect babies from the harsh environment. Maternal diet is a factor which can affect the polyamines variability in milk. To date, no rese...
