Background: Breast milk is the excretory fluid of the mother's mammary gland in the form of an emulsion containing macronutrients, micronutrients, and bioactive molecules that support the growth and development of the baby. The benefits of breast milk are inseparable from its nutritional content. One of the macronutrient components of breast milk is protein, which is very beneficial in infant growth and development. Maternal, infant and physiological factors affect the protein content of breast milk. One of the maternal factors is body mass index (BMI). BMI is a benchmark that is often used in assessing nutritional status related to body composition. This study was conducted with the aim to determine the effect of BMI on protein levels in breast milk. Methods: This study was an observational analytic study with a cross sectional research design conducted at Laboratory of Basic Medical Chemistry, Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Sriwijaya from May-November 2023. This study used 63 samples of breast milk from breastfeeding mothers in Palembang city aged 20-35 years with babies aged 1-6 months who met the inclusion criteria. The 63 breast milk samples were divided into 2 categories, 30 breast milk samples from mothers with normal BMI and 33 breast milk samples from mothers with obese BMI. Protein was measured using the Lowry method and data were analyzed using the Mann-Whitney test. Results: The results of measuring protein levels obtained the average protein content in breast milk mothers with normal BMI was 6,35 ± 5,7888 mg/mL and the average protein content in breast milk mothers with obesity was 8,64 ± 3,7061 mg/mL. In the Mann-Whitney test results obtained p = 0,03 (p < 0,05), thus there was an effect of maternal IMT on protein levels in breast milk. Conclusion: Maternal BMI affects the protein content of breast milk. Keywords: Breast milk, protein content, maternal body mass index.
