Breastfeeding is important and has a big impact on the baby's growth and well-being. Breast milk is the primary source of nutrition for newborns, containing fat, protein, carbohydrates, variable minerals, and vitamins. Breast milk also contains substances that help protect an infant against infection and inflammation, whilst also contributing to the healthy development of the immune system and gut microbiome. Doctors recommend that children should be breastfed exclusively for the first six months and solid meals should be introduced gradually after the first six months and then continued for another one to two years. It is a well-known fact that children experience and taste different types of foods that a mother eats. It is important for lactating mothers to consume enough nutrition for just themselves but also for their growing children. #CAREHospitals #TransformingHealthcare #WorldBreastfeedingWeek #BreastfeedingWeek #RisksOfNotBreastfeeding | CARE Hospitals
