la leche de mama es la mejor

Great propaganda poster from a Peruvian hospital.

English translation:


I DON'T USE A BOTTLE
Why:

• They get dirty easily and can give my baby diarrhea
• It diminishes my milk supply
• The teeth grow deformed and with cavities

BREAST MILK IS THE BEST
And I can drink it whenever I want.


Diarrhea is serious: According to the Rehydration Project, "diarrhoea is the leading cause of death among infants in developing countries. Infants under two months of age who are not breastfed are 25 times as likely to die of diarrhea than infants exclusively breastfed. Continued breastfeeding during diarrhea reduces dehydration, severity, duration, and negative nutritional consequences of diarrhea."

Es la pura verdad!
