Patient's question:
Usually, it's stored in breast milk storage bags. Sometimes, my mother-in-law heats it directly. Can breast milk storage bags be heated directly?Doctor's answer:
Here, heating breast milk at high temperatures can damage the active substances in breast milk even if the entire temperature hasn't risen or it hasn't fully thawed, causing the breast milk to lose its nutrients. Then, most breast milk storage bags cannot withstand high temperatures. Although storage bags may have temperature indicators showing that the overall temperature hasn't exceeded the limit, this extreme fluctuation is not ideal and can easily affect the quality of the breast milk.
