BREASTFEEDING IS THE DIVINE GIFT TO PROMOTE CHILD HEALTHY GROWTH
Children must have access to adequate food and nutrition to ensure healthy development. Breastmilk is indeed a divine gift from Mother’s to their infants. It has enormous health benefits to the new-borns. The initial part of milk called foremilk quenches the thirst, and the hindmilk fulfils the hunger. It is hygienic, readily available, has the correct temperature suitable for infants. It passes on immunoglobulins, making the baby immune to multiple diseases including tetanus, cholera and many other infections. As we celebrate, “World Breastfeeding Week”, we at Malla Reddy Narayana Multispecialty Hospital would like to spread the good word & create awareness in the society.
Breastfeeding provides every child with the best possible start in life. It delivers health, nutritional and emotional benefits to both children and mothers. And it forms part of a sustainable food system.
