Abstract

The study is based on results of energy value and macronutrient composition of breast milk research and its relationship to diet of lactating women of different ethnic groups living in the Republic Sakha (Yakutia). We revealed that the energy value and the macronutrient composition of breast milk to a large extent were determined by ethnicity and region of residence of women.
