  • Title: Maternal-channelled infant feeding.
    Author: Jelliffe DB, Jelliffe EF.
    Journal: Food Nutr (Roma); 1979; 5(1):9-17. PubMed ID: 574839.
    Abstract:
    Proper feeding of the mother during pregnancy and lactation -- preferably with locally available foods -- will optimize the volume and composition of breast milk (both as the sole food for the young baby and as a supplement for the transitional). This approach will avoid the economic, infective and distributive complexities of introducing cow's milk and bottle feeding unnecessarily, and will also help to retard the decline in breast feeding on a community basis.
