If we are expecting a baby and we are still undecided whether to breastfeed or not, we leave any doubt that breastfeeding is the best solution! After several studies have shown that breastfeeding makes kids smarter, researchers have investigated more deeply the positive effects of breast milk, and concluded that enlarges the brain of the offspring.
And it is not only a growth of cognitive abilities, but a real increase in physical size of the brain. Researchers at Durham University in Britain, conducted the study, then published in the journal PNAS, comparing the periods of gestation and lactation of 128 species of mammals, and concluded that the more breastfeeding and the larger brain size.
Scholars have noted, for example, that the elk, which have a body weight comparable to that of man, but breastfeeding for six months, the brain is six times smaller than human. "The result confirms that there is a link between breastfeeding and development - said Robert Burton, one of the authors -.
But what we do not know is what are the substances in milk that stimulate the growth of the brain. Until we'll find out, we can not know if the formula is an adequate substitute. " For humans could apply the same principle that applies to these mammals and, therefore, the brains of infants who are breastfed for a longer period, is greater than that of his contemporaries weaned earlier.
Breast milk transmits flavors to the child, but also other nutrients that can enable a deeper and broader development of the brain. It is worth breast feed our child, do not you think? The benefits of breast milk are coming out a little at a time, thanks to research that is focusing increasingly on the various aspects of nutrition of children.
The authors of this study emphasized that the World Health Organisation guidelines recommending exclusive breast feeding for children up to six months of age, which nes then to solids for up to two years. Unfortunately, it is also true that a premature birth makes the milk less nutritious, but if there are medical contrindicazioni about it, breastfeeding is still preferable.
And then the warmth of the mother and takes care of his son, the small forward that sense of peace and security that will make it more quiet and calm. There are beautiful moments that you should not give up for anything in the world.
