Capsule Comments
with Ernie Miatello
Breast-fed babies are the best -fed babies. It is
recommended to breast-feed a baby as long as
possible since breast milk has all the neces-
sary nutrients in adequate amounts. However, there is a need
for 400 units of Vitamin D daily for breast-fed children. When
the child begins drinking two cups of whole cow's milk a day or
goes on an infant formula, this should be stopped.
How do you sterilize water to make it drinkable? Boiling it for 5
minutes will do the job. Another method is to treat the water
with 2% tincture of iodine. If the water is clean, add 5
drops/litre and let stand for 30 minutes. If the water is cold or
cloudy, add 10 drops and increase the standing time.
Statistics on contraception: 85% of women of child-bearing age
(15-44) use some form of contraception.. Condoms are used
by 25%. Oral contraceptives are used by 30%. Sterilization
(male/female) is used by 25% ofjwople as their contraceptive
of choice.
Tell you doctor about all the medications you are taking. Don't
forget your non-prescription and even herbal remedies. Some
interact with each other and can change the way they work.
