AT A GLANCE
What and how an infant is fed sets the stage for their microbiome, immune development, cognitive growth, and emotional regulation. This Lab provides evidence-based guidance on breastfeeding, formula evaluation, weaning readiness, digestion signals, and the importance of parental rhythm and state. Supporting infant health begins by supporting the whole ecosystem they live in—you included.
HEALTH SCENE INVESTIGATION
- Is your baby struggling with digestion, mood, or sleep—or are you feeling unsure about the best feeding approach to support their growth?
- Have you considered how nutritional quality, emotional co-regulation, daily rhythms, and microbiome exposures might be influencing their well-being?
- What if the patterns you’re shaping now are laying the foundation for your child’s lifelong vitality?
HYPOTHESIS
When an infant’s nutritional inputs, digestive signals, and surrounding environment are aligned with natural rhythms, biological readiness, and co-regulation cues, their likelihood of thriving—physically, cognitively, and emotionally—increases dramatically.
