Talk:Human milk immunity

Health effects
I really enjoyed reading this article. Kudos to user:Bcaffe for writing it! As I mentioned to Bcaffe, I know little about immunology or microbiology, so I will leave the task of article assessment to others.

In the health effects section, I'm seeing descriptions of some effects (obesity and diabetes) that have no known relationship to immunity-related components in breastmilk, so I will remove these. Also note that the sources authored by Koletzo et al are not complaint with guidelines for reliable sourcing for health claims as they report on a single study.

Here is what I've cut:

Several studies have suggested that human milk may protect against childhood obesity and Type 2 diabetes. Early Protein Hypothesis theorizes that the high levels of protein in formula may cause weight issues later in the life of formula-fed babies. In support of this theory, the European Childhood Obesity Project found that babies who consumed standard formula experienced more weight gain than those who consumed formula with protein content more akin to human milk levels.

Split Milk immunity (implemented)

 * isn't relevant to the narrow topic of human milk immunity, but the material in the section is sourced and the broader topic is notable enough to warrant the creation of a general article entitled Milk immunity. – Scyrme (talk) 19:00, 24 March 2022 (UTC)
 * I've implemented the split since some time has passed & no objections were raised. – Scyrme (talk) 13:19, 14 June 2022 (UTC)
