Obesity in Toddler : Children who do not drink mother's milk can become obese. On the other hand, the weight of children who drink mother's milk for 6 months was found to be normal. They were found to be more agile than children who did not drink mother's milk.
Breastfeeding : We often hear that mother's milk is the best for children. But still many people do not follow this advice, the result of which is now visible. In a study done on 200 children, it was found that children who are not breastfed have more chances of becoming obese. This was done in the pediatric department of Lucknow's famous King George Medical University (KGMU). It was found that compared to children who drink mother's milk for 6 months, the weight of children who do not drink mother's milk was found to be more than normal.
Study done on 200 children
This study was done on 200 children who came to the OPD of the pediatrics department, in which data of 200 children was collected. Here children between two to three years had come to the OPD for different diseases. All the children were divided in two categories. 100 children were in the category of those who were breastfed for 6 months and the rest 100 children were those who did not drink mother's milk. The weight of all the children was measured. The weight of the children who did not drink mother's milk was found to be more than normal. While the weight of the children who were breastfed for six months was normal. These children also appeared to be more agile than the formula-fed babies.
Do breastfeed.
Dr Shalini Tripathi of the Department of Pediatrics at KGMU said that children who drink their mother's milk get all the nutrients from milk. On the other hand, many kinds of chemicals are mixed in packaged milk, which has a bad effect on health. The doctor advised mothers to breastfeed their children, and also said that every month 20 to 30 children suffering from obesity come to the OPD. The risk of cancer is also reduced in mothers who breastfeed.
