Breastfeeding involves so much more than just nutrition. It provides essential support for the development of any child, but is especially important for premature and ill infants. We sat down with Professor Aleksandra Wesołowska, head of the University Laboratory for Research in Human Milk and Lactation, WUM Department of Medical Biology, to discuss the unique properties of human milk, as well as what human milk banks are and how to use them.
