Why can’t babies drink water but use water on formula milk?
In: Biology
Babies can drink water – like its a thing that could happen. The main issue tends to be that babies have teeny tiny stomachs and teeny tiny kidneys and comparatively high nutritional needs. Like hummingbirds. If they drink water regularly, they likely wont be able to *also* consume all the calories they need to grow. If they drink a lot of water at once, their kidneys might not be able to process it quickly enough or efficiently enough.
