This new research report synthesizes the best current evidence on the influence of livestock-derived foods, such as meat, milk and eggs, on the nutrition of mothers and infants in low- and middle-income countries, especially in Africa and Asia. It focuses on the needs of pregnant and lactating mothers and their infants during their first 1,000 days of life, from conception to around two years.
