Breastfeeding is ideally suited for babies’ health, growth and development. It means that they receive the vital immunity they need to protect them against illness. 

Breastmilk promotes the growth of babies’ nerves, brains and gut with special factors that are not present in any other milk.

The composition of breastmilk changes during a feed, between feeds and as the baby grows, to provide for all their needs.

The nutritional and health benefits of breastfeeding continue not only for as long as children are breastfed but throughout life.
