Breastfeeding Linked to Fewer Seizures in Kids, McGill University Study

(Reuters Health) - Babies that are breastfed may have fewer seizures after they’re a year old, according to a recent study in Denmark. And the longer babies are breastfed, the better, the researchers found. Babies who had mom’s milk for more than 9 months had fewer seizures than babies who had breast milk for a shorter time, report the authors in the Journal of Pediatrics.
