Abstract
Background: According to WHO(world health organization) and UNICEF(united nations international childrens emergency fund), the rate of malnutrition and mortality can be decreased if all the newborns were breastfed exclusively for six months. It reduces risk of diseases in both mothers and the babies as well. The aim of our review was to show the evidence on benefits and the need of breastfeeding. Results: According to the results of our review , our analysis confirms that both the family and health care professionals play a crucial role in encouraging mothers regarding breastfeeding. Conclusion: According to the evidence available we strongly recommend, to intensify the public health education campaigns to promote breastfeeding practices. The most important factor to be considered is that the mothers should be counselled in prior by the obstetrician and gynecologist, nurses, midwives about choosing breastfeeding and continuing it effectively for a better society.
