You can probably find tons of information about the benefits of breastfeeding all over the internet, but during my days as a student nurse, I came across this handy mnemonic. It uses the word BREASTFEEDING as an acronym. Here it is:
Best for babies
Reduces incidence of allergies
Economical
Antibodies
Stool-inoffensive
Temperature always correct and constant
Fresh
Emotional bonding
Easy once established
Digested easily
Immediately available
Nutritionally balanced
Gastroenteritis greatly reduced
