The Global Exploration of Human Milk (GEHM) is a large body of research from a prospective multi-site study following mothers and infants throughout lactation. To date, this research has included a dozen publications and more than 30 research posters. This session will highlight some of the most relevant findings on the nutritional components of human milk with a view of geographic and lactation stage similarities and differences. The GEHM study highlights the wealth of knowledge global approach to human milk science could provide. With the recent increase in human milk research, we also emphasize the need to translate that information into actionable recommendations to the mother in a nutrition counseling session.
