Nutrition During Breastfeeding
For your new-born, no food is better than breast milk, and the WHO recommends exclusive breastfeeding as the optimal source of nutrition for the baby for the first six months of life. 90% of the baby’s brain growth happens up to 1 year of age. Breast milk contains IQ nutrients like DHA, Iron, Choline and Taurine.
Breast milk offers all the nutrients critical for ideal growth of the baby and protective factors against infection. Mother’s diet is the primary source of energy, protein, and other nutrients in breast milk.Children can be warranted a healthy beginning in life if women begin healthy pregnancy with good nutritional status and has safe pregnancy and childbirth experience.
Insufficient calories or lack of macro-and micronutrients during pregnancy can result in shortage of building materials essential for foetal development. Nutritional deficiencies can also result in developmental adaptations that can have adverse effect on your baby, and can make them vulnerable to diseases during their adulthood.
