BREAST FEEDING

BREAST FEEDING

Breast Feeding is the act of nursing an infant, a new born baby by feeding it with milk from the mother’s breast. Therefore, the mother’s breast is the only true and natural source of breast milk for an infant.

Research for over two decades reveals that breast milk is most suitable for the nourishment and protection of infants from illness and infection attack.
Study has also shown that infants should be nourished with breast milk for a minimum period of one calendar year.

The human antibodies which boost the immune system is transferred 100% to the baby through the mother’s breast milk. Indeed this is the primary nutrient needed by babies and giving it to them is a good service.

ADVANTAGES OF BREAST MILK

• Fortification of the immune system.
• Promotion of normal and healthy growth
• Brain development-The breast milk stands out in building and developing the human brain in the first one year of birth. Children with adequate breastfeed are exclusively brilliant and intelligent.
• The presence of essential ingredients and nutrients like lactose, amino acid, tatty acids and water in breast milk gives rise to easy digestion and assimilation of food substances in to the body of infants.
• Also, the early attachment that exist between mother and child by reason of breast feeding creates a sense of belonging for the child. As a result, the child’s psychological and emotional balance and stability is enhanced.
