Preventing Childhood Asthma and Allergy
Monday, April 29, 2024 at 11 AM PST via Zoom
Increasing evidence suggests that early antibiotic exposure in infancy can have long-term consequences on a child’s health, including an increased risk of developing asthma and other allergic conditions. But did you know that human milk may hold the key to mitigating this risk?
Join us for this FREE webinar featuring Dr. Hannah Lishman, Senior Scientist for Community Antimicrobial Stewardship at the BC Centre for Disease Control. Dr. Lishman will delve into the latest research findings, including results from a retrospective cohort study conducted across BC and Manitoba, shedding light on the relationship between infant antibiotic use, human milk exposure, and childhood atopic disease outcomes.
Don’t miss this opportunity to gain insights into actionable strategies for preventing childhood asthma and allergy!
