The Quality of Breast Milk – Improve It By Eating Better
❤️ [ Ссылка ] ❤️
Baby colic - how to improve the quality of your breast milk to help your colicky baby and you.
There's been two bits of really fantastic research that I've come across, and it's about the quality of breast milk.
And the thing I really am passionate about – and actually get shot down on in flames a little bit from other breastfeeding professionals - which is that I believe the quality and quantity of your breast milk... you can manipulate a little bit by eating better yourself.
Mums know this..
Okay, but often mums are told: "...who cares what you eat, it doesn't matter, your breast milk stays the same, and your baby will be fine..."
So, of course, your baby will be fine, but what if we can get you healthier and get your breast milk healthier, and get your baby better, but also at the same time get you feeling better, because you're eating better?
So what's the big deal about eating a bit better to help you, maybe help your breast milk, maybe help your baby?
Okay, so the two bits of research:
One was on these beneficial sugars called oligosaccharides, that are in the breast milk, and they feed the gut bacteria.
They found that if a mum took probiotics (which you know I recommend all the time for colicky babies) the sugars in her milk changed.
They got better.
But they saw a change.
So, doing something to the mum - probiotics - influenced what was in the breast milk.
How can what you eat not change what's going into milk, because your milk is made out of you and what you eat?
Okay, the next one:
They've got thousands of mums who are donating their breast milk into this big pool that was then studied.
They found: "....there was a huge difference between each individual donation of breast milk they had..."
So all the mums breast milk was different.
Of course it is because each mum is different!
Each mum is eating differently.
This is what I go on to mums all the time, but you're probably lacking protein and fat in the diet because you're snacking and having carbs and things, so this is my interpretation of this, but the fats seem to be very varied.
What if we can alter that or what if we can help a mum eat better, eat more healthy fats, eat more protein that changes the breast milk?
What if then the baby feels more full, doesn't cry or snack so much?
What I see in the clinic is that when we get mums to eat better the baby feeds better, gets more full, gets settled.
Even things like fats - if you're talking about Omega 3 fatty acids - they're actually anti-inflammatory, and this gut stuff like IBS, or let's say in babies, colic - the fats actually calm the bowel down.
What if having a mum eat more healthier fats alters how she feels, alters how the breast milk is, and then feeds the baby better and heals the gut better from colic?
Okay, that's where I'm going with it, and we've started to get this research showing breast milk varies between people.
You can do things to the mother and it changes these things that they didn't think could change, so it's really important.
I love this stuff, because now we've got this opportunity of looking after the mum which then helps the baby.
If you're not breastfeeding, you look after yourself as well.
Eat better - you'll feel better, and that rubs off onto the baby as well.
Okay, I hope you found this a little bit interesting.
I'm always looking for this kind of research.
Now we're going to build it and then get mum's health better and get baby's health better as well.
