Effect of High Fat Diet During Nursing on Infants

Breastfeeding is the natural way of feeding the baby. It provides all the nutrition the baby needs during its first 6 months of its life. Breast milk has all the nutrients needed for the development of brain, eyes and other body systems of the baby and also develops its immune system. Overeating during breastfeeding may affect the health of the offspring; they are at a high risk of becoming obese and attaining early puberty.
