ISULONG ANG BREASTFEEDING: TAMA, SAPAT, AT EKSLUSIBO

               Nowadays, many mothers are using a substitute milks rather than their breast milk. Simply because the baby doesn't want the milk of the mother or the mother doesn't want to breastfeed the child. They say that breastfeeding is better. What is breastfeeding? What is the importance of it?

               Breastfeeding is the feeding of an infant or young child with breast milk directly from female human breasts rather than from a baby bottle or other container. Breast milk is easier to digest. For most babies especially premature, breast milk is easier to digest than formula. The proteins in the formula are made from cow's milk and it takes time for babies stomachs to adjust in digesting them. Breast milk fight disease. The cells, hormones, and antibodies in breast milk protect babies from illness. This protection is unique, formula cannot match the chemical make-up of human breast milk. Life can be easier when you breastfeed. Breastfeeding can save money. Breastfeeding can feel great. Physical contacts is important to newborns. It can help them feel more secure, warm, and comforted. Mother can benefit from this closeness, as well. And also, breastfeeding can be good for the mother's health, too.

               The nation benefits overall when mother's breastfeed. Medical care are lower for fully breastfeed infants than never breastfeed infants. Breastfeed infants typically need fewer sick care visits, prescription, and hospitalization. Start now mommies, see what's best for your babies. Encourage every mommies, hand in hand let't promote breastfeeding.

Voices that you should hear!

Dear Mr. President,


               Hello sir! How are you? I hope you are fine as you are reading my letter to you.


               I wrote a letter to you sir because I want to share the problems that we want to solve in our community. And I am hoping that you can help me us.


               I want to talk about the province. Ilocos Sur is such a great place and have many beautiful sites. Many people residing in this province has no jobs, especially the ones that have no education. In this case, many of us suffering poverty. Another is about the leaders, I know and I believe that is is one of the reasons why Ilocos Sur can't achieve progress. One of the leaders are being caught using drugs. And we all know that drugs is a big no no in our society. If this are the kind of leaders we have, how could we achieve progress? Another is about the election that was made last May 28, 2011. I can say that many people in the province are blind, they didn't want change. Instead, they still want the life we had in the past. The life that had no improvement, the life that makes us miserable, and the life that had no equality. I was really disappointed because of this happening. They have already known the backround of that family. Why they still want that family to lead us? It's a big question on my part sir. 


               I am sharing this to you sir because I know that you can help us. I know that you are the most powerful person in the country. And I know that you can help us in giving solution to our problem. I have a request sir, and i hope that this request will be granted. Please do what you can do to make our country one of the richest country in the whole world. 

               Thank you sir! 


                                                                                                                                          Truly yours, 
                                                                                                                                        Lalanie Palado
