There are many reasons why, if you are able to manage it, breastfeeding is best for your baby. Here is a reason you probably do not know about. - Human breast milk is very low in salt/sodium.
A low sodium intake at the beginning of a baby's life helps to protect the baby from becoming obese. The longer you continue to breastfeed, the better the protection from obesity and the stronger your baby's blood vessels will be. - six months would be good; longer still would be better still. - A low salt intake is best for mothers too...(o:
Read about the damaging effect (obesity) of high sodium intake on children on my webpage http://www.wildeaboutsteroids.co.uk/children.html
Lose weight by eating less salt! Go on! - Try it! - You will feel so much better!
