I can not be used because the body's reasons for breast-feeding their children. The child is now 7 months and has been eating formula. But recently a child constipated, I want to change your baby to eat fresh milk, you say OK? Can use Chinese medicine "Seven Star Tea" transfer formula do?
A: The fresh milk is the alternative to breast milk substitutes can be done, but it has a lot of drawbacks: First, the protein content of fresh milk is too high, about breast-feeding two times the infant's immature kidneys can easily increase the renal burden. Fresh milk proteins mainly by the composition of casein and whey protein, its ratio of 80:20 to casein-based. Casein molecules larger role in the acid formed can not digest milk clot. Although the fresh milk by high levels of calcium, but calcium and phosphorus ratio of inappropriate, high levels of phosphorus affect calcium absorption. Especially the iron content is low, and because high levels of phosphorus will also affect iron absorption. The long-term consumption of fresh milk, will cause a child of calcium deficiency and iron deficiency anemia. In addition, the chemical composition of fresh milk is mainly saturated fatty acids, easily under the effect of gastric acid saponified with calcium to form blocks, causing dry stool. Milk sodium, potassium, plasma load is too high will increase renal syndrome caused by the baby's death. Some people in order to allow their children to drink fresh milk, there will be no disinfection of the milk directly to feed their children, this is very dangerous, because the milk are most vulnerable to pollution, such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Streptococcus, Salmonella typhi, Brucella and so on through the medium of livestock and manpower into the milk. Some of the antibiotics in milk, or high levels of aflatoxin, without a professional inspection directly to infants and young children to drink, it is easy to cause allergy or disease from occurring.
Formula in fact is based on people's nutritional needs for the preparation, especially infant formula, to be closer to breast milk, therefore, according to the ingredients in breast milk to cow's milk to strengthen the process. Such as casein and whey protein ratio of 60:40 ratio of preparation into the breast milk will be replaced by saturated fatty acids unsaturated fatty acids. Strengthening of calcium, iron, zinc, vitamin D and other essential minerals and vitamins the body of content, adjusted the ratio of calcium and phosphorus, causing the child more easily absorbed. In order to meet the needs of development of the nervous system, some of the same formula milk was also added as the same proportion of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, commonly known as the brain gold) and arachidonic acid (AA). But also added anti-inflammatory substances, vitamin A, taurine, and some nucleotides. However, due to production processes or costs, and different nutrient formula is not the same, so the parents to choose formula must be carefully read instructions on the product's nutritional composition table, do not listen to some one-sided propaganda factory promotions. But no matter what formula preparation, will never catch up breast milk nutrition. Therefore, as long as the conditions, or to breast-feed well!
