Mycotoxins in Mothers Milk in Israel

NCT05371106 · Status: RECRUITING · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 150

Last updated 2025-12-24

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Some plant pathogen fungi may develop in grains, nuts and dry foodstuff during their storage. They secrete toxins which are very resistant and persistent.

The toxins enter the human body through the food. Women eating without their knowledge spoiled food absorb the toxin which is conveyed into their milk. In the same way, meat and dairy products can be contaminated with mycotoxins.

Toxins and their metabolites can have negative effects on pregnant women and on the fetus or infant health.

The main purpose of this trial is to assess the presence of toxins in mothers's milk.
