Benefits of Breastfeeding
Regardless of the taste, breast milk has been proven to be beneficial for babies and even moms. One of the significant benefits of breast milk to babies includes a boost in immunity. Babies who are breastfed tend to be less prone to diseases. Also, breast milk provides optimal nutrition to babies, and at the same time, it helps improve cognitive development.
A mother's breast milk also contains bioactive molecules that promote organ development. It is also good to help babies be protected from infection and inflammation.
For moms, one of the benefits that are brought by breastfeeding is it decreases the risk of depression. Studies show that postpartum depression is less likely to happen to a mother who breastfeeds, compared to those who wean early or do not breastfeed at all.
