My new talk, Increasing Food Security: The Critical Role of Breastfeeding just got released as part of an Ethics Bundle with the international organization, called Gold Lactation. In this talk, we explore current rates of food insecurity which are honestly so much higher than I imagined. We get into the importance of breastfeeding and also the challenges that food insecure households face when trying to feed their family, during emergencies, and around breastfeeding. Talks are not great without hope and this one has loads of actions that a person could take. I hazard to say, big or small, we all should take some action so more families become food secure. If you are lactation professional, you'll likely want to view the #goldlactation bundle.

🤱 In celebration of World Food Safety Day let's highlight breastfeeding's benefits.   👶Nursing infants with breast milk is a natural and safe method to provide essential nutrients, promoting their healthy growth and development. This practice plays a crucial role in achieving SDG 2 and SDG 3 by addressing hunger, improving nutrition, and enhancing health.  🚼 United Nations Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR) supports breastfeeding through its Breastfeeding Education Initiative (BFEI), promoting optimal practices such as initiation within one hour of life and continued breastfeeding up to two years of age or beyond.  Let's promote this natural process on World Food Safety Day as a vital practice for nourishing our youngest populations.   📰 To read the World Food Safety Day article by BFEI, click here: https://shorturl.at/VqiEs   🔗 To learn more about our breastfeeding initiative, visit here: https://shorturl.at/DlApc  #WorldFoodSafetyDay #Breastfeeding #Health #FoodSecurity #ChildHealth

Attention Moms-to-Be! 🚨 Your health and your baby's health are top priorities! 🍼💕 Let’s keep both of you safe by avoiding certain foods that can lead to infections like salmonella, listeriosis, and toxoplasmosis. 🚫 🥚 Avoid Salmonella: Skip uncooked or undercooked eggs and meats. Cooking them fully can help you steer clear of this harmful infection. 🧀 Stay Safe from Listeriosis: Choose pasteurized milk and avoid soft cheeses like camembert, brie, and blue cheese. 🧀 Cheddar and mozzarella are safer options. Also, ensure any frozen foods are thoroughly cooked until steaming hot before eating. 🍎 Prevent Toxoplasmosis: Buy whole fruits and veggies, wash them well, and avoid pre-cut produce. 🚫 Keep away from cat litter, and if gardening is a must, wear gloves and wash your hands afterward. Taking these simple steps can help keep you and your baby healthy throughout your pregnancy! 🌟 Stay informed and stay safe! #pregnancyhealth #momtobe #pregnancytips #healthypregnancy #babyonboard #pregnancysafety #healthymom #prenatalcare #pregnancynutrition #newmomjourney #expectingmoms #babybump #pregnancywellness #maternitylife #pregnancyjourney #pregnancydiet #pregnancyawareness #maternitytips #pregnancysupport #drshrutigarg
