Summary Introduction
To examine: Whether the statement, “Infant formula is better for babies than breast milk”, is true or false.
Introduction: Lactation is the production of milk in women’s body after a child birth. Lactation signals are caused by the release of hormones such as prolactin and oxytocin.
