ABSTRACT

The first semester of the postnatal life represents a period of great challenge for the health and nutrition of human being because the high metabolic rate and the rapid velocity of growth demand proportionally more nutrients than in older ages. The immaturity of the gastrointestinal tract, the neuro-muscular coordination and the immunological function limit the intake of food that infants are capable to consume and if they do it, are exposed to a major risk of transmissible infections through feeding, as well as to food allergies. Because of these and other reasons, the World Health Organization recommends that: «…every infant should be exclusively breastfed during the first six months of life». Afterwards, all infants must receive an adequate and safe complementary feeding meanwhile they continue being breastfed until two years of life. These recommendations are of crucial importance for attaining the optimal growth and development in the best conditions of health. Therefore, the Committee on Nutrition of the National Confederation of Pediatrics of Mexico has considered convenient to communicate, to the national pediatric community and all professionals of health attending children, these recommendations for children until 23 months of life.
