Study Summary
This study is examining the relationship between infant nutrition, gut health, and development. The fecal microbiota changes and develops, in large part due to the food that infants eat. These changes are important for many aspects of development. This study is designed to examine how the fecal microbiota changes when exclusively breastfed infants are first introduced to solid food, and how changes of the fecal microbiota are related to other aspects of development.
Primary Outcome
The difference in the relative abundance of the infant fecal microbiome at the order level (top 22 taxonomic orders with abundance expressed as both on log10 scale and a percent of total bacteria) between baseline and post-complementary food intake for each intervention arm (sweet potato vs. pear).
