Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• assess the cognitive development in breastefed children by the use of Stanford binet intelligence test and compare it with artificially fed children as well as the duration of breastfeeding.

  In this study we measure the mental development of breast fed and artificailly fed preschool children by the use of Stanford binet intelligence test to prove that breastfed children have higher IQ than artificially fed chidren
