Sammanfattning
Growth during infancy is slightly lower among breastfed infants, but the difference seems to disappear later during childhood. Breastfeeding seems to have a beneficial effect on blood pressure, lipid profile and possible insulin resistance/type-2 diabetes and obesity, but there is no evidence for effects on clinical manifestations of cardiovascular diseases. Potential negative effects include transfer of environmental pollutants and viruses, especially HIV, and the risk of hypernatraemic dehydration during the first weeks after delivery. For the mother, breastfeeding seems to reduce the risk of developing breast cancer.
