“The children are the hopes of our nation”, a quote that we have learned since we were in elementary. No doubt, everybody already have heard this but until now, the reality that the possibility that this quote will be sustained in the future is still very low. It seems that some mothers out there are taking their kids for granted especially in health related aspects. How can they the hopes of our nation if in the first place, they are suffering from malnutrition? As early as their children are still babies, mothers should already give proper attention to the proper nutrition of the kids and one way is the method of breastfeeding.
Breastfeeding is the method by which babies suck the nipples of their mother’s breasts which contain very healthy milk. The breastmilk contains several nutritious vitamins and nutrients like the colostrums which is a fluid secreted by the mammary glands during the first few days of lactation. A lot of doctors have already recommended the consumption of breastmilk for babies instead of letting them drink commercial milk. Yes, these products also contain nutritious benefits that are good for the children but the safety is not an assurance. A couple of years ago, there has been reports that some milks contain the substance melamine which is very dangerous and fatal. I am not saying that we must avoid buying commercial milks but it has been scientifically proven that breastfeeding is better.
If you want your children to be healthy and good people someday, why not try breastfeeding. You will not lose anything, in fact, you will gain something and that is the good health and safety of your children. So let us walk hand in hand in promoting breastfeeding to spread its powers and benefits. Say YES to Breastfeeding, Proper, Enough and Exclusive!
