Nutrition has a significant impact on a child’s physical and mental development. It is important to have a healthy diet for the growth and development of the brain, as an undernourished brain may not function at optimal levels. This article will discuss various ways to improve your nutrition, including balanced intakes of protein, carbohydrates, fats and vitamins. In this article we'll be discussing what factors influence growth in children from infancy into early childhood. We'll also be considering nutritional factors that can affect cognitive development during these years - including how breast milk can help optimize a baby's cognitive function during periods of rapid brain growth before one-year-old. There is a large body of research that has linked breast-feeding with better child cognitive development, even in environments where it is not medically required. Health and development professionals and social policy makers continue to stress the importance of breast-feeding for infant and child health, however some mothers report difficulty in producing enough milk or obtaining sufficient quantities of donor breast milk for their babies. There are many women's groups that advocate the benefits of breastfeeding and encourage mothers to breastfeed their children. Breast-feeding provides an important source of nutrition for young infants. Research suggests that increasing amounts of fat found in the breast milk plays an important role in brain development. Children who are breast-fed tend to achieve higher IQ scores than those who are not. Studies found that breast-fed babies had an average higher level of mental development compared to formula fed babies. The Association for the Study of Breastfeeding (ASBR) has compiled a list of professional organizations that support breastfeeding in their mission statement. These include; the American Academy of Pediatrics, the North American Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology, Nutrition and Hepatology, the World Health Organization, the International Breastfeeding Institute and The British medical association. Although most groups agree on its importance they disagree on how to improve it. Pros: The benefits of breast milk are both direct and indirect. Direct benefits include the provision of nutrients necessary for normal brain development, such as high quality protein, fat, vitamins and minerals. Indirect benefits include health benefits that may reduce the rate of infant mortality or disability in childhood. Benefits may also include better sleep patterns, less risk of allergies and respiratory diseases, lower rates of certain types of cancer, lower suicide rates among young adults and reduced levels of depression during later life. Cons-Breastfeeding may experience the following health issues. The mother may suffer from mastitis which is an inflammation of the breast. The baby may experience colic or gastroenteritis. Breast-feeding may lead to breast engorgement which leads to discomfort and pain for both mom and baby. This can be avoided by using nipple shields. One month out of every month, the baby may be unable to produce enough breast milk; this is normal and does not indicate that the child should be replaced with formula. It has been shown that breastfeeding can help reduce levels of lead in children's blood, although the exact mechanism behind this is not clear. Breastfeeding has been shown to have certain health benefits for mothers as well as their babies. cfa1e77820
