Paula,
"Administering probiotics during pregnancy and breastfeeding thus offers a
safe and effective mode of promoting the immunoprotective potential of
breast-feeding and provides protection against atopic eczema duting the
first 2 years of life."
Don;t know about anyone else, but I'm sure there's more than just a few
dollars to be earned from providing moms with probiotics. Sounds like
something the artificial milk manufacturers produce? And I don't even want
to think about the marketing advantages to them if they start doing this :-(
Do you know who sponsored the study?
