Leche and Tiny Health Launch First Clinical Study of Donor Breast Milk's Effect on Formula-Fed Infants' Gut Health
The 100-family trial will measure whether a small daily amount of donor breast milk shifts a formula-fed infant's gut toward a healthier, more breastfed-like pattern
Leche, the first shelf-stable, consumer-driven donor breast milk, and Tiny Health, the at-home microbiome testing company for every stage of life, today announced a joint clinical study examining how donor breast milk affects gut health in formula-fed infants. It is among the first studies to apply modern microbiome science to donor milk specifically, and the first to measure what happens when a small daily amount is added on top of formula.

Leche's donor breast milk sachets alongside Tiny Health's Gut Health Test, the tools families will use as part of the new joint study. Leche is 100% human donor breast milk powder from medically screened donors, triple-tested at every stage for safety and quality, processed in an FDA-registered facility following GMP guidelines. Each convenient 8g sachet reconstitutes into 2oz of breast milk, making it easier and safer to access donor milk.
