Mother’s milk is best
Ludhiana, August 6 Dr Rajinder Gulati, an expert and resource person, Breastfeeding Promotion Network of India (BPNI), delivered a lecture on “in what way breastfeeding is a healthy option in comparison with bottle feeding”. Enumerating the advantages of human milk Dr Gulati said human milk contained fat which ideally suited the infants. It also contained certain enzymes which added to the digestibility of milk fat. Moreover, it contained long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCP) which were important factors for early human growth and development. In contrast, babies fed on bovine milk developed LCP depletion resulting in decreased brain growth. This affected the IQ of the child. Principal carbohydrate contained in the human milk was lactose, the concentration of which was higher when compared with bovine milk. This helped in providing instant energy to the newborn. He further added that the minerals and their salts in breast milk were species specific in concentration and ratio, for optimal growth of human babies, whereas cow’s milk contained three times higher concentration of sodium and potassium salts. Another lecture on various aspects of breastfeeding along with poster competition was held at DMCH yesterday.

SAI coaches
Ludhiana, August 6 Mr Khanna, on August 4, while requesting the Deputy Speaker reminded him that it was only because of these coaches that Punjab had produced sportspersons of international repute. “By transferring these coaches from Punjab, the SAI has done a great harm to the sports activities in the state as players who are on the verge of representing the state in the future national meets as well as those who have been trained to don the national colours during the overseas tournaments are left in the lurch,” Mr Rai said. The SAI has transferred a large number of coaches from the state. Some of them have been posted at places where there is no infrastructure and the number of trainees is less than those of coaches.
