According to new research by experts, the ideal breastfeeding duration is 13 months. Breast milk begins to become insufficient to nourish the baby after the 6th month; complementary foods should be introduced starting from the 6th month.
Breast milk has a special structure known as "colostrum," which strengthens immunity and protects against germs. Breastfed babies do not experience choline-inositol deficiency; this is one of the best supports for intelligence and memory development. It is recommended to give eggs as a source of choline-inositol in addition to breast milk after the 6th month.
New research has revealed that breast milk contains Coenzyme Q1 up to the 13th month. This enzyme strengthens memory and supports intelligence development. It has been found that babies who receive breast milk for 13 months have stronger memories, more developed perception abilities, and more advanced immunity. Coenzyme Q1 is a newly discovered enzyme and is considered for future use in Alzheimer's patients as well; it should not be confused with Coenzyme Q10.
