The World Health Organization and UNICEF consider mother’s mile the “gold standard” in infant nutrition.
The most important thing is the milk plays a key role in the development of the child’s brain because the milk is rich in omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids (DHA & AA), taurine, choline, zinc and many other ingredients that support the process. A baby’s brain develops rapidly in the first few years of life, and it is important to supply the baby with breastmilk right from the start through two years according to an article called Breastfeeding and Child Cognitive Development by Kramer, in The Archives of General Psychology (2008). It may not turn your baby into a genius but the baby’s brain will reach its full potential. Studies have shown that breastfed babies perform better on IQ tests later in life.

I love to write and am interested in more things than I have time for but the good news is, I'm never bored. I'm married with 3 sons and 4 grandchildren. I am a Christian and I live in Jacksonville, FL. My hobbies are writing, particularly on Hub Pages, and I am addicted to genealogy research. I worked most of my life as a RN. Now, I enjoy family, friends and hobbies. I am interested in travel, genealogy, gardening, politics, social issues, health issues and I make stained glass.
