关注乳母营养 促进母亲儿童健康

Focus on nutrition of lactating women and promoting maternal and child health

尽管有人类存在就有母乳喂养，然而，人们更多关注的是母乳及母乳喂养的婴儿。而在全球范围内，对乳母本身营养与健康状况及其影响因素则关注和研究较少。诸多研究结果提示，乳母营养与健康状况不仅会影响泌乳量和人乳成分，而且还可能对乳母健康状况产生近期和长期持续影响。应关注母乳喂养以及改善乳母的营养与健康状况。

Breastfeeding has been existing from the beginning of human beings. The focus has usually been on breast milk and breastfed infants. However, there have been a few studies on nutrition and health status of lactating women worldwide. Many of these studies suggested that the nutrition and health status of the women not only can affect milk volume and nutrient contents, but also may have short- and long-lasting effects on their health status. Therefore, more research should focus on breastfeeding and the improvement of nutrition and the health status of lactating women.
