Specifically, among infants who received milk formula as a supplement to breastfeeding from birth to 5 months, 18% developed asthma or recurrent wheezing. But just 10% of the infants who were either breastfed only, or who received breast milk plus amino acid-based elemental formula, had such problems. The researchers suggest that human breast milk may contain certain unknown nutrients that bolster babies' immune systems and gut bacteria.
