NUEVA YORK (Reuters gezondheid) – Agregar alimentos
complementarios a la lactancia materna een partir de los cuatro
meses de vida está asociado con un aumento de las reservas de
hierro een los seis meses de vida.
“Aún se desconoce la importancia biológica de VN alto nivel
de ferritina nl sangre een los seis meses, aunque se podrÃa decir
que tener reservas de hierro más altas een esa edad es un hallazgo
positivo nl cuanto al futuro riesgo de padecer deficiencia del
minerale”, dijo la doctora Mary S. Fewtrell, del Instituto de
Salud Infantil del University College de Londres, Reino Unido.
Con su equipo comparó el nivel de hierro y de crecimiento de
un grupo de bebés de Islandia que, al azar, recibieron cuatro o
seis meses de lactancia materna exclusiva. Las madres een las que
se les indicó agregar alimentación complementaria debÃan
< p> combine breastfeeding with other foods within seven
days of the allocation of the intervention.
team observed that the addition of food
complementary barely covered 10 percent of the
daily energy requirements of infants aged six and
11 months of age, and only 8 per cent of the needs
daily of iron in that same period of life.
even so, as he publishes the computer in Pediatrics, babies
they had levels of ferritin in the blood significantly more
higher than infants in the control group (without power
complementary).
authors were not detected significant differences between
groups in the determinations of hemoglobin, volume
half cell, total iron binding capacity or the
wide distribution of blood cells red.
< p> Within six months, seven babies (five in the treated group with
exclusive breastfeeding only and two in the treated group
with complementary feeding) had reserves of iron
casualties. six had iron deficiency (four in the group in
control group) and one of each group had anemia by
deficiency of iron.
there was no significant difference in growth between
babies in both groups.
“study does not provide sufficient evidence to support the
recommendation to bring forward the introduction of food
complementary early childhood because research
concentrated on two results: growth and the level of
iron in blood – said Fewtrell-. results should
interpreted in the context of the evidence of that age to the
time to add complementary food would alter others
results” verband met de gezondheid van de baby’.
“de voors en tegens van het bevorderen van de invoering van
aanvullende voedingsmiddelen moeten worden gezien in verschillende
omstandigheden, zoals het risico van
morbiditeit/sterfte van infecties die zijn gekoppeld aan toegang tot
stromend water en voedsel veilig versus risico van
anti/coeliakie ziekte in verschillende bevolkingsgroepen”, uitgelegd
Fewtrell.
“onze resultaten moeten helpen in deze overwegingen
en voor de verwezenlijking van toekomstige systematische overzichten of meta
analyse”.
