متن کاملVitamin E supplementation in exclusively breastfed VLBW infants.
We conducted this study to evaluate the adequacy of breastmilk as a source of vitamin E in exclusively breastfed VLBW infants. Such infants (n=44) were randomly allotted to receive vitamin E supplementation (n = 23); the rest (n = 21) did not receive vitamin E. After 21 days, the vitamin E level in the supplemented group was 0.78 + 0.26 mg/dL as compared to 0.77+ 0.25 mg/dL in the unsuppleme...

However, it is uncertain whether breastfeeding leads to reduced infant exposure to arsenic in regions with lower arsenic concentrations. OBJECTIVE We estimated the relative contributions of breast milk and formula to arsenic exposure during earl...
