The Mental Health of Children of Parents Working in War Zones

Cow’s Milk for Infants? – A Study
In recent years, research on infant nutrition has increasingly focused on dietary habits in the early stages of life. Interesting observations have emerged suggesting that the introduction of cow’s milk in the early stages of an infant’s life may potentially provide protection against the development of milk protein allergies. Researchers considered numerous factors during the studies, and the results surprised them. Milk allergy and lactose intolerance are different issues that are often confused. Lactose intolerance arises from a deficiency of the enzyme lactase, which converts lactose into glucose and galactose. When the body cannot produce this enzyme, it leads to lactose intolerance, resulting in digestive problems. In contrast, milk allergy…

Fetal development is an extremely sensitive period during which nutrition fundamentally influences future health. The consequences of starvation can manifest not only on a physical level but also in mental domains. Studies suggest that nutritional deficiencies experienced in early life may exert lasting effects that persist into adulthood. The scientific community increasingly recognizes that fetal nutrition affects not only physical development but also…
