The Claim

The composition of proteins in human milk changes following COVID-19 vaccination, and the magnitude of these changes varies by vaccine type, with the most significant changes observed after the Johnson & Johnson vaccine (13 proteins), followed by the Moderna vaccine (8 proteins) within 1–6 hours, and the Pfizer vaccine (4 proteins) at 3 days post-vaccination.

Supports is higher

Support is ahead, but a single strong opposing study can change this.

These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.

Quantitative
1 study reviewed
In plain English

Different COVID-19 vaccines change the proteins in breast milk in different ways. The Johnson & Johnson vaccine causes the most changes, while Moderna and Pfizer cause fewer.

What the research says

1 study
  1. Study: Associations between SARS-CoV-2 Infection or COVID-19 Vaccination and Human Milk Composition: A Multi-Omics Approach

    The study looked at how different COVID-19 vaccines affect breast milk and found that the Johnson & Johnson vaccine caused the most protein changes, followed by Moderna and then Pfizer, just like the claim says.
