Nutrition During Breastfeeding

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. 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. During the first year, the child’s brain doubles in size. Breast milk contains brain nutrients like DHA, Lutein, Natural Vitamin E, 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.
