Toddler milk is marketed with claims of improving brain development or immune function, but the American Academy of Pediatrics recently warned that it is "unnecessary and potentially harmful to young children." For healthy toddlers without a specific medical diagnosis, there is no evidence of a need for or benefit from toddler milk. Our Dr. Jenelle Ferry, neonatologist and director of feeding, nutrition and infant development at Pediatrix® Neonatology of Florida, spoke with Fox News about the ideal diet for toddlers after they’re weaned off breast milk or infant formula and when extra nutrition might be needed. https://brnw.ch/21wLI3A

Protection from long COVID is one reason I plan to vaccinate my kids against COVID-19 this fall. Learn more about long COVID and kids in this great post from Elisabeth Marnik for Those Nerdy Girls. Key takeaways: - Long COVID affects a substantial fraction of kids. Estimates range from 4% to 62% but tend to fall in the 10-20% range. This variation reflects different definitions and populations. - Vaccines reduce the risk of long COVID. Multiple studies have found a lower risk of long COVID diagnosis in children who were vaccinated. The exact level of protection is hard to pin down but one study suggests around 40%. https://lnkd.in/g2XmQTmd #longcovid #pasc #vaccines #covidvaccines
