Diabetes mellitus is a disease that becomes "hidden killer" because its complications can cause serious diseases, such as heart, kidney, and blindness, and many more. For women, one of the ways to prevent diabetes is by feeding the baby.
Providing breast milk (milk) not only ensures that babies get the full nutritional and intelligence support, but also beneficial to the mother. Various research has proven the benefits of breastfeeding.
In a recent research examining 2200 women aged 40-78 found 27 percent of respondents who do not give milk type 2 diabetes compared with mothers who breastfeed their babies.
Type 2 diabetes occurs when the body's cells gradually lose sensitivity to insulin. The disease is also one of them caused by obesity.
"Setting diet and exercise is an effective way to prevent diabetes. However, not many people know that breastfeeding can reduce a woman's risk of developing type 2 diabetes later in life," said Dr. Eleanor Bimla Schwarz of the University of Pittsburgh.
