Question

​the energy content of preterm and term breast milk is _____ calories per ounce.

Answer 1

20 calories per ounce.

The average calorie content of human milk is 20 cal/oz. The calorie content can vary throughout each feeding and the day, because of the change of fat content. If the breast is empty of milk, this will cause the milk to be high in fat. While if it's empty, the milk will contain less fat.
