In the first months of an infants life nutrition is essential for cognitive and physical development. These nutritional needs are most often met with breastmilk, a naturally engineered substance that meets babies biological requirements, but this source of nutrition is not always available as there are various factors that could prevent a woman from producing breastmilk.
