## Caption

During infancy and early childhood, it’s important that your baby receives enough nutrition to develop properly and maintain optimal health. One way to do that is by #breastfeeding. Breast milk has plenty of vitamins, minerals, proteins, hormones, and antibodies to help your baby fight disease. 

Research from the American Academy of Pediatrics shows breast milk can lower the baby’s risk for several conditions, including:

- Asthma
- Childhood obesity
- Diarrhea and vomiting
- Ear infections
- Lower respiratory infections
- Type 2 diabetes
