Research conducted in the United States has shown that while breast milk helps protect against many diseases, it is also beneficial for eye diseases.
According to research published in a medical journal, experts conducted research to examine the effects of breast milk on eye diseases, especially wounds or other problems in the cornea.
Experts used human milk on mice and examined the results to see what effects it was having on their eyes.
Experts made wounds in the corneas of young mice and gave them human milk and then examined the results.
Experts found that within a few days, the wounds in the corneas of the mice’s eyes not only healed with human milk but also gave them energy.
Experts said that while breast milk provides children with energy to fight other diseases, it is also beneficial for eye diseases.
According to experts, the role of breast milk in eye diseases and especially eye injuries was first revealed in 2016, after which further research was conducted on it, and now the results on mice also show that breast milk is beneficial.
Experts said that breast milk has the ability to heal eye injuries in children quickly.
Experts clarified that it is likely that breast milk is beneficial for eye diseases because it has properties similar to proteins found in eye drops.
Usually, drops prepared for the treatment of eye diseases are modified to include proteins found in human blood, which have properties similar to natural tears.
According to experts, breast milk also contains proteins that are added to eye drops, which is why breast milk is beneficial for eye diseases.
