Breast milk is ideal for infants, but not all families can rely on it.
Only 45% of U.S. infants are exclusively breastfed at 3 months.
Researchers at the University of Kansas have made a breakthrough in infant formula.
They've added Milk Fat Globule Membrane (MFGM) and lactoferrin to formula.
This combination was shown to raise children's IQ by 5 points at age 5½.
The study was a follow-up to previous research, confirming long-lasting cognitive benefits.
The components of MFGM are essential for human nutrition and brain development.
This research paves the way for smarter, healthier futures for children worldwide.
