According to study C-section, antibiotics and formula milk may slow up babies’ health risks

 

 Baby HealthThe findings showed that babies who are born through caesarean, exposed to antibiotics and are fed on formula milk are likely to have a slow growth as well as a decline in the diversity of microbes throughout the first year of life, such children were at an increased risk of developing asthma, autoimmune diseases and obesity, finds a new study. As compared to vaginally born infants, those delivered by C-section showed significantly greater diversity of species in the weeks after birth.

Study shows that modern practices have changed a baby's microbial communities in ways that last through the first year and the change in birth mode interrupted the natural interplay between diversity and dominance.

Further, antibiotic treatment also significantly diminished diversity of bacterial species immediately following birth. Children fed on formula milk showed a decrease in the diversity of species during the second year of life also.
