“Breast milk is still best for babies,” says an infant milk advertisement, after extolling all the health benefits of their product.
That is why many mothers would prefer feeding their babies with infant formulas against their own breast milk, believing that their children will grow stronger and smarter. This observable fact can be seen in the proliferation of infant milk products available in the market nowadays, coupled with aggressive advertising claiming these and that benefits for the babies. It also shows how lucrative the business of infant formula industry.

However, study results of the causes of children’s death globally is not indicative of the fulfilled promise of healthy babies claimed by infant milk manufacturers, on the contrary, the statistics is very alarming. In fact, under-nutrition accounted for 53% of the highest cause of death in children worldwide. In addition, there are 42 countries that account for 90% mortality of children less than five years in age.

This article will tackle the true benefits of breast feeding and why mothers-to-be and lactating mothers must many times before going to a grocery and pick infant milk formula which claims to contain “magic nutrients” to help kids grow to be super strong and super smart.

Practically, breast feeding is beneficial to the baby, to the mother, and to the whole family as well.
Breast milk is best for babies because it contains exactly the nutrients an infant needs. It is also easily digestible and efficiently used by baby’s body for growth and development. In addition, it contains colostrums or human milk glycans, the entero-mammary immune system that protects the baby against infections.

Colostrum contains antibodies and can be best described as the innate immune system of the human milk. Moreover, breast milk lowers the risk of “lifestyle diseases” later in life.

Although there are several available drugs for immunization today, studies conducted by experts reveal that full immunoprotection requires human milk.

Breast milk is not only best for babies but also benefits the breast feeding mothers. Study shows that breast feeding lessens the incidence of bleeding among mothers after giving birth. It can also help delay pregnancy and lowers the risk of cancer among women.

Breastfeeding also enhances baby-mother bonding and possibly lessen, if not totally prevent, mother-son/daughter quarrels in the future as both develop strong emotional attachment and mutual understanding during the period of breast feeding.

Breast milk is not only readily available, but also very affordable for the family. Instead of spending large amount of hard-earned money to buy expensive infant formula for the newborn, the family only needs to buy nutritious food. The food is not just for the lactating mother, but for the whole family as well, thereby contributing to the good health of the entire family.

Fruits, vegetables, and protein sources are best for lactating mothers as well as very beneficial for the rest of the family. When a mother chooses to breast feed, she is also ensuring that the rest of the family is eating well-balanced meals.

In fairness to the infant milk advertisers, there is truth in what they are saying: Breast milk is (still) undoubtedly best for babies.
