Description
It is a dream for every parent to see their baby grow healthy. Some of the essential nutrients for infant’s growth are iron, vitamins, minerals, protein and fluoride. All these nutrients can be obtained from breast milk.
The benefits of breastfeeding are as follows:
It supplies the nutrients required for an infant growth and development
It supplies the proper balance of nutrients; minimizing the likelihood of excesses or deficiencies.
It does not stress a baby’s developing digestive system and kidneys.
It is bacteriologically safe and provides immunological protections.
It involves physical contact between a mother and the child which brings about emotional growth just as important as physical growth and development.
These prove that breastfeeding is the preferred mode of infant feeding for various reasons.
In view of the fact that the breast milk is supplied by the mother, it is important for the breastfeeding mother to take in diet that contains nutrients such as vitamin A, calcium, magnesium, folic acid, iodine as depicted at the upper part of this artistry.
At the lower part of the painting are pots of water to highlight the necessity of purified water.
As portrayed at the lower part of this composition, a baby and the mother playing, if they all gain the essential nutrients indicated above it will keep them healthy and happy.
