This Is Not a “Gut Health” Hype Course
Are you confident in the science? Parents are asking about probiotics. About C-sections. About antibiotics. About gut health, immunity, eczema, and “healing the microbiome.” The research is expanding rapidly — but much of it is preliminary, over-interpreted, or stripped of nuance in social media spaces.
As a lactation or infant feeding professional, you need more than buzzwords. You need clarity. From First Feeds to First Foods provides an evidence-based framework for understanding what we know, what we do not know, and how to translate microbiome science into scope-appropriate clinical conversations.
