🚨 NHD Paediatric News 🚨⁠

Maternal obesity changes the gut bacteria of infants, potentially affecting their metabolism and health later in life

By employing advanced DNA sequencing techniques, the researchers analysed and compared the gut microbiomes of babies born to mothers with obesity to those of infants whose mothers did not have obesity using advanced DNA sequencing.
