Summary

Dive into the science behind the power of breastmilk and how it applies clinically. Guest: Dr. Richard Noel, MD, PhD Earn 0.10 ASHA CEUs for this episode with Speech Therapy PD Watch on Youtube Michelle and Richard lean into the “nerdy details” behind early nutrition and why it matters so much for the infants we serve. Their conversation walks through clinical guidance on probiotics in the NICU, unpacks the emerging science of microRNA, and connects these concepts to real-world infant growth, gut health, and feeding outcomes. Michelle helps you translate the science into what it means at the bedside, in early intervention, and in caregiver conversations.
