Breastfeeding
In this section of Seattle Organic Restaurants I want to talk about how breastfeeding reduces the chances of obesity and diabetes. Any time you visit your pediatrician check your baby's growth chart. The faster your baby gains weight even in first week or month the higher is her/his chance of being obese or diabetic. The first few months of your baby’s life are the most critical stage that your baby can develop obesity, hypertension and asthma. One of the early life factors contributing to obesity is that the child hasn’t been breastfed enough and actually is being introduced to solids pretty early.
It also very well could be drinking too much juice and sugary beverages, more than one fast food meal a week, too much TV time and not getting enough sleep. It is essential that within weeks or months after the delivery the baby adopts a healthy pattern of diet and life style.
Breastfeeding Role in early Obesity Prevention
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends breastfeeding especially for the first 6 months to a year with combination of solid foods after 6 months for children. Science shows that the chances of obesity is much less when the baby is breastfed. Breastfeeding also could be effective in lowering the chances of the mother developing gestational diabetes or type 2 diabetes.Baby Cries aren’t Always for Hunger
Your baby isn’t necessarily hungry when he/she is crying, sometimes the baby cries when they want attention, they aren’t comfortable or they are bored. The idea of feeding your baby every time they cry can wrongly shape your child’s eating habits. So the baby starts developing some sort of a pattern that when they are hungry they are fed, when they are uncomfortable they are fed, when they are bored they are fed and if they cry for any other reasons they are fed. The American Academy of Pediatrics suggests solid foods after the age of 6 months. Science proves that introducing solid foods to babies before the age of 6 month can significantly increase the chances of obesity and by the time the children are two or three years old they develop obesity. Solid feeding and not breastfeeding has a strong correlation with obesity.Eliminating Sugary Sweetened Beverages
The diet in babies also develops certain early behavior patterns. It is really important not to introduce sugary sweetened beverages to young children and eliminate their consumption. Even fruit juices should be limited; juices can have the same amount of sugar as soda. Studies show that children start developing food preferences during their childhood based on what they are fed, how they are fed and how often they are fed.
