This reminded me of a Lars Hanson article I have “Effects of Breastfeeding
on the baby and on its immune system” (date unknown)  that states in part:
"Non-breastfed infants in poor areas are quickly colonized by several
potentially pathogenic aerobic bacterial strains, which show a continuous
flux in the gut. In contrast, exclusively breastfed Swedish infants show a
stable, more slowly developing intestinal flora,"
