Breast milk microbiome contains yeast and fungi: Do these benefit the infant?

May 29, 2019 By Elizabeth

“‘Our research demonstrates the presence of yeasts and other fungi in breast milk in healthy mothers, supporting the hypothesis that breast milk is an important source of microorganisms to the growing infant,’ said principal investigator Maria Carmen Collado, PhD, Senior Researcher, the Institute of Agrochemistry and Food Technology, National Research Council, Valencia, Spain.”

…”‘Our data confirm the presence of fungi in breast milk across continents and support the potential role of breast milk on the initial seeding of fungal species to the infant gut,’ the investigators wrote. ‘This supports the existence of a ‘breast milk mycobiota’ under healthy conditions.'”
