She will assist you to enjoy this incredible boon of breastfeeding along with your little one.
Long ago, breast milk was the only source of nutrition for the newborn babies. There simply wasn’t any alternative available nor were the mothers looking for one. Even today, no one has ever invented a precise substitute for breast milk. Breast milk has some exceptional ingredients which are not lucid to replicate.
But the scientific world has brought in many supplementary items like formula which is marketed to be the best alternative for breast milk. Babies can rely on formula for their nourishment only when breastfeeding is totally impossible or out of question. But with the so-called alternative for breastmilk present before us, we the today’s mothers are easily inclined to it with the smallest of impossibility or with a bewildered mind that our baby is not getting enough.
Unlike yesteryears, nature’s food for our babies (breast milk) is being made as a choice these days. To interpret the importance of breastmilk and shatter the hindrances that are stopping you from breastfeeding, there are many hidden facts which we need to decode and discern.
Now it’s time to check out our expert’s articles. Enjoy, support and help your little one receive the benefits of breastfeeding.
Cardiac Health in Women and Children
Dr R Aravind Kumar, a skilled physician who is pursuing his doctorate in cardiology will be dispensing his incredible knowledge to create awareness on the Cardiac Health in Women and Children. He will be discussing the various Cardiovascular Diseases (CVD), how they can be prevented, diagnosed and treated earlier.
The average heart will be of the size of a fist in an adult. In spite of its size, the heart works 24 x 7 to pump the oxygen-enriched blood throughout our body. When the heart ceases to work everything ends. So it becomes significant to protect our heart from any kind of damage.
There is often a misconception that men are more prone to heart diseases. But the truth is women are equally susceptible to CVD. There is a lack of awareness in women that they too can be at a risk for heart ailments.
Similarly, we think of CVD only as we get older. With this fast swirling world that is occupied by junk foods, digitalization and everything that could easily make a person unhealthy, CVD can occur at any age. So we need to educate the kids about the seriousness of Heart Health and how to lead a healthy life for a healthy heart.
Follow our expert’s articles to know about the different cardiovascular diseases, how they can be prevented and how to keep your heart healthy.
