There is increasing evidence that implicates gastrointestinal microbiota as a critical player in the development of diseases in children. Epidemiological studies suggest that early life exposures can alter the gut microbial composition such that differential composition and colonization may influence disease risk. The objective of this session is to review the role of early life exposures in altering the infant gut microbiome and the impact on disease risk, including obesity and allergic diseases.
Planned with the Pediatric Nutrition DPG
CPE Level: Level 2 (intermediate knowledge/experience)
CPEU: 1.0
Performance Indicators
