Breastfeeding

"Breast-feeding is an unequalled way of providing ideal food for the healthy growth and development of infants, and has a unique biological and emotional influence on the health of both mother and child. WHO and UNICEF believe that health care practices, particularly those related to the care of mothers and newborn infants, stand out as one of the most promising means of increasing the prevalence and duration of breast-feeding." A joint statement by WHO/UNICEF
