Breastfeeding is a CALORIE BURNER. It helps burn pregnancy weight faster and promotes the release of the hormone OXYTOCIN, which helps the uterus return to its pre-pregnancy size and also reduces uterine bleeding after birth.
The physical SKIN TO SKIN and EYE contact between mother and child while breastfeeding builds a bond and boosts security between them both.
Breastfed children develop high Intelligence and are less likely to be overweight or obese. Women who breastfeed also have a reduced risk of breast and ovarian cancers.
