Breastfeeding: More than just food
And the first fact that upset us is that 60% of babies do not receive their mother's milk until 6 months old, and this figure has hardly changed for years. It's time to fix it.
After all, mother's milk is a real "white blood" for a newborn. This is not only a perfectly balanced diet, but also live antibodies that protect the baby in the first, most important months. Even after a year, it remains the most valuable source of energy (up to 1/3 of the daily value).
For moms, breastfeeding is:
A quick return to form (thanks to oxytocin).
Protection from stress and postpartum melancholy.
Reducing the risk of dangerous diseases of breast cancer, diabetes and osteoporosis.
For a kid, it's:
Strong immune system and healthy intestines.
Fewer colds and bite problems.
Better development of intelligence and speech.
And most importantly, the incredible closeness with my mother, which gives me a sense of security for life.
Feed with love, because nature has come up with the perfect mechanism.
