Hari ni aku terbaca satu artikel dalam Yahoo Malaysia! pasal kekurangan vitamin D dalam susu ibu. Meh aku quote artikel tadi:
Experts finally agree on one thing in the bottle vs.
breastfeeding debacle: Regardless of how their mothers choose to feed
them, babies need more vitamin D.
Although vitamin D is important throughout life, it is essential within the first year in reducing risk of current infections and later development of autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis and type 1 diabetes.
Dr. Heaney cites a study published a year ago in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism that indicates vitamin D plays a crucial role in metabolism and hormonal functioning.
While the amount of vitamin D necessary for adults is debatable, according to Dr. Heaney, the requirements for infants are more obvious. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and the Institute of Medicine (IOM) recommend 400 IUs delivered daily in drops.
While this number is widely agreed upon as being necessary for infants, Dr. Heaney says that in the case of breastfeeding mothers, milk becomes sufficient in vitamin D when the mother maintains a daily intake between 5,000 and 6,000 IUs.
Mid-day summer sun can help the body produce 10,000 IUs in just one 15-minute, total-body exposure. For those who believe natural is best, this eliminates the need for vitamin D drops, according to Heaney.
Given that the benefits of breastfeeding have long been considered numerous and more beneficial than bottle feeding, surprise is a normal reaction to research that suggests human milk to be insufficient in anything.
A study of indigenous populations of East Africa, published in the European Journal of Nutrition, says that mothers living an ancestral lifestyle not far from the equator produce sufficient levels vitamin D in their milk due to high sun exposure.
Citing this study, Dr. Heaney states that while reverting to ancestral lifestyles and relocating not far from the equator is unnecessary, nursing mothers should receive supplementary doses of vitamin D, enough to match the levels of the East African subjects.
To answer the question of how northern societies survived in the era before vitamin supplements were available, Dr. Heaney says that fish high in vitamin D was their main staple, allowing for sufficient intake.
History highlights the outbreak of rickets a century ago in Europe, North America and East Asia as a sure sign of widespread vitamin D deficiency.
According to Heaney's research, it was eradicated by cod-liver oil and the addition of vitamin D supplements to bottled milk in the 1930s.
Vitamin D is also found in oily fish like salmon and sardines as well as in eggs, milk and shiitake mushrooms.
Begitu la artikel yang aku baca tadi. Pening eh? Panjang lak tu. Stress aku!! Ok, gurau je tu.
Nothing is perfect dalam dunia ni, kawan-kawan. So walaupun kita breastfeed baby kita since birth, belum tentu lagi susu kita tu cukup berkualiti untuk anak. Macam professor ni cakap, susu ibu memang yang terbaik tapi mengandungi sangat sedikit vitamin D. Jadi untuk menampung kekurangan vitamin D dalam susu ibu, adalah disarankan supaya ibu mengambil pemakanan tambahan supaya susu yang dihasilkan untuk anak nanti adalah berkualiti dan mengandungi cukup gizi yang diperlukan.
OSTEMATRIX
Apa yang korang tau pasal Ostematrix ni? Masa mula-mula aku consume Ostematrix waktu mengandung dulu adalah sebagai back up kalsium yang berkurangan sewaktu hamil. Tapi korang tau tak, selain dari kalsium, ada lagi mineral lain dalam Ostematrix tu? Apa kebende nye? Tengok bawah ni:
Ostematrix - Kalsium + Magnesium + Zinc + Manganese + Boron + Vitamin D
Ye, tuan-tuan dan puan-puan sekalian. Ostematrix juga mengandungi VITAMIN D!!
Agak-agak kenapa professor tu sibuk highlight pasal vitamin D? Apa kegunaan vitamin D untuk tubuh? Pernah terfikir tak? Kenapa perlu untuk ambil Vitamin D tambahan sedangkan tubuh boleh menghasilkan vitamin D?
Vitamin D Membantu Pembentukan dan Memelihara Tulang
Jangan salah faham, bukan la semata-mata vitamin D je, dah boleh membentuk and memelihara tulang. Vitamin D bergabung dengan vitamin C pun boleh membantu pembentukan tulang jugak. Cumanya, fungsi KHUSUS vitamin D adalah mengatur kalsium dan fosfor dalam tubuh supaya ada dalam darah untuk diendapkan di dalam proses pengerasan tulang. Pening? Hehe.. pendekkan cerita, vitamin D membantu mengeraskan tulang.
Vitamin D Untuk Kulit
Tau dari mana sumber asli korang boleh dapatkan vitamin D? Ikan tuna, udang, mentega, biji bunga matahari, dan minyak ikan. Pengambilan vitamin D memperbaiki kerosakan kulit selain mencegah jangkitan pada luka.
Vitamin D Mencegah Kanser Prostat dan Kanser Usus
Pengambilan vitamin D yang konsisten mampu membantu mengelakkan penggandaan sel-sel kanser. Semakin tinggi kandungan vitamin D di dalam darah, maka semakin rendah la jugak risiko diserang kanser usus.
Pengalaman aku masa breastfeed Safiyyah, memang Ostematrix membantu menambah-nilai pada susu yang badan kita hasilkan. Salah satu milk-booster selain daripada ESP dan juga Alfalfa. Pilihan terbaik untuk ibu-ibu menyusu kerana susu yang dihasilkan adalah lebih berkualiti.
Nak dapatkan Ostematrix? Macam biasa la:
