How To Stop Hiccups In Newborn Baby - 5 Ways

How To Stop Hiccups In Newborn Baby – 5 Ways:

We know about the nutritional value of milk, especially as main source of nutrition for infants. It is a good source of calcium, vitamin D and protein. A lot of studies previously have linked consumption of milk during pregnancy to taller, healthier children with better IQ but a study conducted at University of Auckland reveals something rather surprising.

Pregnant women with iron deficiency are more likely to go into premature labor or deliver a baby with low birth weight. They are also more likely to be iron deficient while they are breastfeeding.

Iron is necessary for healthy brain development and its deficiency in infants may affect its functions, behavior and learning capabilities. While milk is an important source of calcium, it is a poor source of iron. Milk is also quite filling and so can reduce the appetite for other foods that are better sources of iron.

According to researchers in New Zealand, pregnant women who drink a lot of milk put their babies at risk of having an iron deficiency during an important phase of development. The study was published in the issue of Medical Journal.

Researchers do not suggest that women should stop consuming milk but limit its intake and consume more iron-rich foods along with Vitamin C that helps in the absorption of iron. An alternative would be to increase the nutrient content of milk consumed by mothers-to-be to keep both the mother and child healthy.
