Infant feeding practices have a vital role to play in shaping the eating behaviour and overall health of individuals in both childhood as well as adulthood. A lesser-known advantage of breastfeeding in the global obesogenic environment, is its role in self-regulation of an infant’s appetite. Research demonstrates that children fed exclusively from the breast (that is, they are never bottle fed) develop the capacity for self-regulation of breastmilk intake – after all, mothers cannot possibly observe the quantity of milk the infant ingests. This encourages the infant to gain control, thus avoiding any overconsumption. On the other hand, bottle fed infants (whether mother’s milk or formula milk) are subjected to mother’s or other caregivers encouragement of bottle emptying. Since the regulation largely lies externally with the parent/caregiver on scheduled or timed feeding versus a cue feeding, this állows the possibility of such children being prevented from developing their own appetite responsiveness independently. Studies do find differences in satiety responses of children fed human milk with a bottle and those who were directly breastfed. Research has shown that directly breast-fed infants do not consume extra milk once their appetite stimulation phase ends. However, the teaching of bottle emptying during early infancy is positively associated with the weight gain. Such distinctions clearly emphasize the importance of breast feeding, but whether it is the milk composition (human or formula) or the mode of feeding (directly from breast or using bottle) that plays a bigger role in signalling appetite control warrants further examination. Considering that an infant’s weight gain or growth has a multifactorial causation, this review will highlight the association of direct breastfeeding with appetite signalling in infancy.

Young child malnutrition and food insecurity is the result of many factors including social and economic inequities, disempowerment of women, inadequate support for breastfeeding, degraded environments, poor sanitation, unsafe water, violence and conflict. In this complex context, humanitarian agencies have a responsibility to guard against unintended consequences and ensure that the promotion of “quick fix” interventions do no harm. One such intervention is the Small Quantity Lipid Nutrition Supplement (SQ-LNS), that UNICEF is recommending for introduction into national nutrition programs to reduce mortality. The authors believe this recommendation is based on questionable evidence. They point to a fundamental flaw that trials compared “an intervention (SQ-LNS)” with “no comparable food-based intervention.” In effect, a pre-determined outcome. Also present is a conflict of interest, with support and intellectual input coming from interested food companies. Many other concerns are listed: SQ-LNS is an ultra-processed food (UPF), as defined by Nova Classification; daily feeding to children with poor diets will not improve dietary diversity and may undermine confidence in more culturally appropriate and nutritious family foods; the double burden of malnutrition and the emerging pandemic of overnutrition; the environmental impact of packaging and most importantly the clear potential for commercial exploitation. The widespread use of SQ-LNS in the face of food poverty is viewed as an unsustainable, unsafe and nutritionally inappropriate response. UN and humanitarian agencies should use their considerable diplomatic influence to challenge corporate-led food systems and support governments in their efforts to protect, promote and support breastfeeding and the provision of diverse complementary foods.

India has achieved significant improvement since 2000, yet there are still areas of alarm, notably with regard to child nutrition. Adequate nutrition during infancy and early childhood is critical to each child’s development of his or her full human potential. The period from birth to two years of age is widely acknowledged as a “critical window” for promoting optimal growth, health, and behavioral development. The present study was conducted on 500 mothers of infant and young children (0-24 months) visiting OPDs of government and private hospitals of district Mohali. The respondents were interviewed using a questionnaire provided by WHO (WHO, 2021). It was found that only a few mothers (n=20) practiced hand expression of breast milk irrespective of the type of hospital visiting. A majority gave pre-lacteal food among those visiting both the private and government hospitals. 89.4 percent (n=447) had ever breastfed their infants while a majority visiting government (52.1%) as well as private (53.3%) hospitals practiced exclusive breastfeeding. Reasons for stopping breastfeeding included medical advice, family advise, perceived decreased milk production or birth of another child. IYCF practices were found to be similar amongst mothers visiting the government and private hospitals. Therefore, breastfeeding counselling at antenatal clinics and peer support for exclusive breast feeding as per WHO recommendations should be included as part of breast-feeding promotional programs both in private as well as government hospitals, dispensaries and clinics.
