Microscopic View of Human Milk, Cow's Milk and Formula

The following images were taken under a microscope magnified to 400x. Imagine what we might see if we magnified even further...

Formula (the pointer is pointing to an air bubble; formula is a "dead" product)



Human Milk (Alive with white blood cells, glyconutrients, and immunobodies)

Cow's Milk (more similar to human milk than formula, but with great compositional and structural differences - for example, human babies cannot digest cow's milk proteins, and baby cows would not be able to survive on human milk. For more on this subject see, The Baby Bond)
