Natural Birth Triggers Protein in Newborn Brain that Improves Brain Development and Function
New study from Yale. As reported in the Yale News (Karen N. Peart, Aug 8, 2012) “Vaginal birth triggers the expression of a protein in the brains of newborns that improves brain development and function in adulthood, according to a new study by Yale School of Medicine researchers, who also found that this protein expression is impaired in the brains of offspring delivered by caesarean section (C-sections).”
