<<<<Looking for some research supporting the quality of breastmilk after a
year but will settle for at one year.
Pam MazzellaDiBosco, IBCLC, RLC>>>
In the second year (12-23 months), 448 mL of breastmilk provides:
* 29% of energy requirements
* 43% of protein requirements
* 36% of calcium requirements
* 75% of vitamin A requirements
* 76% of folate requirements
* 94% of vitamin B12 requirements
* 60% of vitamin C requirements

Infant. Pediatric Clinics of North American. February 2001;48(1).
"Human milk expressed by mothers who have been lactating for >1 year has
significantly increased fat and energy contents, compared with milk expressed by
women who have been lactating for shorter periods. During prolonged
lactation, the fat energy contribution of breast milk to the infant diet might be
significant."
