Breastmilk contains all the nutrients that most babies need in the first 6 months.
It is hygienic, safe and economical.
Colostrum (premilk substance containing antibodies and white cells from the mother’s blood) is a key supplement for the infant’s immune system.
Colostrum is produced in the first 2 to 3 days of lactation.

Supplementary feeding Supplementary feeding Supplementary feeding Supplementary feeding
Whereas early supplementation feeding is not recommended because:
It may expose children to pathogens
It decreases an infant’s intake of breast milk
And it also reduces breast milk production…
However, starting at the age of 6 months, children should be receiving supplementary feeding since breastmilk alone is no longer sufficient.

Iodine deficiency disorder (IDD)Iodine deficiency disorder (IDD)
• IDD is a major global nutrition concern.
• IDD can be avoided by using salt that has been fortified with iodine.
• Interviewers asked household respondents for a teaspoon of salt and tested it for iodine content using portable test kits provided by UNICEF.
• Only 12% of children live in households using adequately iodized salt.

Iron-deficiency anemiaIron-deficiency anemia• Most common micronutrient deficiency in
the world.
• Prevalence is defined by low hemoglobin.
• In the CDHS, direct measurement of hemoglobin for children 6-59 months and women 15-49 years was done in 1 household in 4.
• Level of hemoglobin was measured by taking a drop of capillary blood from a person’s fingertips or heel.

Vitamin A deficiency (VAD)Vitamin A deficiency (VAD)
• Vitamin A is essential for the growth and development, sight, immune function and reproduction.
• VAD is strongly linked to the nature of foods available and to the feeding practices.
• In the survey, VAD was estimated by looking at the consumption of foods rich in vitamin A in the week before the survey and in the consumption of vitamin A supplements.

Main FindingsMain Findings• 96% of children born in the last five years have been
breastfed.
• However, only 11% were breastfed in the first hour and 24% during the first day.
• 14% of children under 4 months are exclusively breastfed
• Half of children under age 3 were breastfed until 24 months.
• Supplementary feeding is introduced much too early in life.
• 16% of children less than 36 months are bottle-fed, which can be detrimental to their health.
• Almost half (45%) of children are stunted (too short for their age) including 21% severely.
• One in five women (21%) have a BMI of less than 18.5.
• Around 3 in 5 children and women are anemic.
• Consumption of iodized salt is very low.
• Consumption of foods rich in vitamin-A is 76%.
