A study conducted in the U.S. has revealed that while mother’s milk protects against various diseases, it is also beneficial for eye health.
According to research published in a medical journal, experts examined the effects of breast milk on eye diseases, particularly corneal wounds or other issues.
Scientists tested human breast milk on mice to observe its impact on their eyes. They inflicted corneal wounds on young mice, administered human milk, and then analyzed the results.
The study concluded that within a few days, the corneal wounds in the mice not only healed but also regained vitality.
Researchers stated that just as mother’s milk provides immunity against various illnesses in infants, it is also beneficial for eye diseases.
The role of breast milk in treating eye ailments, particularly corneal wounds, was first discovered in 2016. Since then, further research has been conducted, and recent findings from experiments on mice confirm its effectiveness.
Experts believe that breast milk may contain proteins similar to those found in medicinal eye drops, making it beneficial for eye health.
