Parents in the US and other societies are increasingly refusing to vaccinate their children, even though popular anti-vaccine myths – e.g. ‘vaccines cause autism’ – have been debunked. This book explains the epistemic and moral failures that lead some parents to refuse to vaccinate their children. First, some parents have good reasons not to defer to the expertise of physicians, and to rely instead upon their own judgments about how to care for their children. Unfortunately, epistemic self-reliance systematically distorts beliefs in areas of inquiry in which expertise is required (like vaccine immunology). Second, vaccine refusers and mainstream medical authorities are often committe...

Anne sütü bileşiminin en önemli özelliği bebeğin yaşına ve durumuna uygun değişim göstermesidir. Örneğin prematüre doğum yapan anneler bebeklerinin ağırlığına, gestasyon yaşlarına, böbrek solüt yüklerine uygun süt salgılarlar. Prematüre ve zamanında doğum yapan annelerin sütleri arasındaki farklılık birinci aydan sonra ortadan kalkmaktadır. Doğumdan ilk bir aya kadar olan dönemde anne sütünün bileşimi (besin ögeleri açısından), bebeğin gastrointestinal sistemine uygun olarak farklılık göstermektedir. İlk günlerde salgılanan kolostrum daha kıvamlı, protein içeriği yüksek, yağ miktarı düşük, sodyum, potasyum, magnezyum, kalsiyum gibi minerallerden ve bebeği enfeksiyondan koruyan hücre, antikorlar yönünden zengindir. Giderek sütün içeriğinde değişiklikler olur ve 15 gün içinde olgun (mature) süt özelliğine erişir.

They approach the topic from the p...
