Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental condition that affects millions of individuals worldwide. While the exact causes of ASD remain unclear, a growing body of research suggests that both genetic and environmental factors contribute to its development. One environmental factor that has garnered significant attention in recent years is breastfeeding. This review aims to explore the relationship between breastfeeding and ASD prevention, shedding light on the potential benefits and limitations of breastfeeding in reducing the risk of ASD.
