Human milk with all of its greatness has always attracted scholars to explore. Exclusive breastfeeding in six months and continued to two years will provide great benefits not only for the child, and also for Mom and Dad.

Isn't it a miracle?
Here are some great benefits you will get from breastfeeding:
Great Children
What do I mean by the word great children? Children who were breastfed will be healthy, intelligent and have stable emotion. Immune substance in breast milk is the best; it helps our kids to conquer germs that infect their bodies. Breast milk also provides the best DHA (Decosahexanoic Acid), an important constituent of human brain and nerve.
Breast milk is healthy because:
1. It is very rich in antibodies (immune substances) that functions to fight against disease and infection. Immunoglobulin A (Ig.A) in the colostrums of breast milk are quite high. It is not absorbed but can cripple a bacterial pathogen i.e. E. coli and various viruses in the digestive tract.
2. Breast milk is very easily digested by babies.
3. Breastfeeding may reduce the risk of diarrhea, respiratory infections, lower urinary tract infections, and also reduce the risk of sudden infant death.
