My understanding to HMOs

Being the youngest among all siblings and cousins, I got the opportunity to be with my nephews and niece for a couple of years before getting married. Important things I learnt were the diaper changing process, how to get a baby to sleep, how to give a bath to the baby and so on. But when I got to be a mother, I realized that being a mother is not just about changing diapers., it's the purest form of bond and things beyond, which I can't explain in words. I started having thoughts like- is my baby getting enough nutrients? is my baby’s immunity good? Is brain development happening the way it should?

I remember having a conversation with my Pediatrician when he explained to me the importance of my feed for my baby along with key nutrients that a baby should get Breast milk has Prebiotic HMOs (Human Milk Oligosaccharides). Prebiotic HMOs are unique as they help produce good bacteria in a baby’s gut. These good bacteria help keep the bad bacteria at bay. which in turn improves the baby's immune system. Being a new mom, this information was completely new to me. I have got to thank my Pediatrician, who gave me a good crash course on Prebiotic HMOs, and how important it is for my baby's gut health and immunity. So please do look for more information on Prebiotic HMOs to maintain healthy Immunity and the gut of your baby.
