I believe breastfeeding creates the biggest effect on the future of your child’s health. By breastfeeding, you could ultimately help give your child an immune system before they’ve developed it. What you need to know about the effect of breastfeeding on the immune system: • There are many different strains of friendly bacteria in breastmilk that are passed over. • The mother’s antibodies get passed over (antiviral antibodies and antibacterial antibodies). • There is a lowered risk of respiratory infections, ear infections, allergies, ADD, autism, and asthma. • T cells will be passed over. T cells can take the immune system to the next level. • Butyrate can be passed over. This could potentially help prevent allergies and autoimmune diseases. • The risk of type 1 diabetes could also be decreased. • There is a more diverse microbiome. • There is more interferon. It would be best to breastfeed for a minimum of 6 months. Ideally, the child would have breastmilk for two years. DATA: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/arti...
