Ministry of Health Exclusive Breastfeeding Campaign

Ministry of Health Exclusive Breastfeeding Campaign

There has been lots of Public Awareness Campaign to encourage moms to breastfeed their child for 6 months EXCLUSIVELY. Parents are now more rely on public forum and social media for advices and justification of old myth, which I find it has benefit the new generation as a whole.

Breast milk is good for baby because:-

1. Breast milk Builds natural antibodies for the child

2. Breast milk Reduces risks of baby getting diarrhoea, respiratory infections, allergy and a lot more

3. Breast milk Encourages brain development

Breastfeeding is good for mommies because:-

1. Breastfeeding Reduces chances of getting breast cancer

2. Breastfeeding Burns calories (up to 600 calories per day)

3. Breastfeeding Mothers has fewer problems with weight
4. Breastfeeding Mothers has better healing postdelivery

5. Breastfeeding Helps mother uterus return to its normal size more quickly—at about six weeks postpartum, compared with 10 weeks if you don’t breastfeed.

6. Breastfeeding Has Less risk of cancer
Breastfeeding can decrease your baby’s risk of some childhood cancers. And you’ll have a lower risk of postmenopausal breast cancer and ovarian cancer, an often deadly disease that’s on the rise.

Ministry of Health Malaysia has had brochures circulated around, and aims to encourage mother to breastfeed exclusively for 6 month in order for the child and mother to lead a healthy life.

I had personally experience breastfeeding for both of my kids and am encouraging other mummies to do the same.

There are moments of frustrations – baby not able to latch, worries baby may not get enough liquids, worries they are hungry, stress of getting up to breastfeed, breastfeeding thoughts are not shared and accepted well by family members and the list goes on.

Do not fret as it happens to all mummies, especially first timer. If you have problem having baby to latch on in a correct manner, or sore nipples, you can option for pump out. It’s equally beneficial and you can even continue while you are back to work.

Only one advice, do let baby latch on as frequent and whenever you are available. Breast milk is associated with demand and supply, the more you pump and let baby latch direct, the more your body will produce.

Do get enough rest, plenty of drinks, soup, liquids, and eat more nutritional food.

You are not alone, should you want to seek more info, do visit the webpage and there are SMS assistance as well.

Gran's Remedy for Smelly Feet and Footwear

Thanks Michelle for sending the product over and it is a privilege to try on Gran's Remedy.

A Brief Introduction:

Gran's Remedy is manufactured in New Zealand and exported worldwide to countries such as the Australia; Japan; Korea; UK; USA; and parts of Asia & Europe.

In New Zealand Gran's Remedy Foot Powder has been the market leader in its category for many years.

Smelly feet are the butt of many jokes. But having smelly feet and footwear is no laughing matter & it's a highly embarrassing condition that can cause the sufferer to feel self-conscious and stressed.

Gran's Remedy for Smelly Feet and Footwear is a unique blend of powders that treats the problem of smelly feet or foot odour, rather than masking it. Usage is pretty simple as you can just sprinkle a spoonful (spoon included in the bottle) of Gran's Remedy into the footwear you use each day and night, for seven consecutive days or until the powder is used up. Alternatively, you may also apply directly to your feet provided that there are no open wounds.

A treated footwear should stay odour-free for up to six months

Foot odour control

The main thing that feeds foot odour is sweat. With more than 250,000 sweat glands each, your feet are one of the parts of the body that perspire most.  In one day, each foot can produce more than a pint of sweat! Sweat is basically just salt and water, so it doesn't have a distinctive smell. The smell is actually caused by bacteria on our skin that feed on the sweat, and excrete waste, which has a strong odour.

Sweat, bacteria growth & a bad smell

Wearing the same pair of shoes every day means that sweat builds up inside the shoes. This keeps the shoes moist, contributing to the production of excessive perspiration, bacterial growth and often, an unpleasant smell. If your footwear is left to dry for a few days, the smell usually fades away. But once you put the footwear on again, the warmth returns and so does the bad smell.

Effective treatment for smelly feet

Independent research has shown that Gran's Remedy is 100% effective for actively treating all five of the bacteria and fungi known to cause smelly feet and footwear. Gran's Remedy treats the feet and shoes at the same time. Any 2 variant at a great price!

Gran's Remedy Cooling, Original and Scented Foot Powder is sold individually at Rm59 promotional price. If you would like to order Any 2 variant at a great price of RM109 promotional price.

What's best is they have a Money-Back-Guarantee offer that comes with every bottle. Hence, it's worth to give it try as there is no lose.

 

My thoughts after use:

- there is no longer sticky feel inside of the shoe as most of the time after one whole day your feet will sweat. If the feet is not kept dry, there is when fungal infection and smelly feet comes about.
- powder are of no smell and only 1 small scoop needed.
- great for daily use
- recommended as it's a problem solving for smelly shoe definitely and best is still money back guarantee.

Nap Pod @ I'm So Sleepy

Naps can even have a physical benefit. In one study of 23,681 Greek men over six years, the participants who napped three times per week had a 37% lower risk of dying from heart disease. Not to mention a host of other positive outcomes that might occur from regular napping.

I wouldn’t say nap pod as you will be expecting a far too advance nap pod just like in Google’s office – just like us. By the way, we just finish our “Internship” movie, and coming to here excitedly for the Google Office nap pod feel.

I would call this a nap center. A newly setup nap center by a husband and wife team whose venture the importance of nap for a wide group of people, that includes us, the busy parent who has active children. This is to encourage us to take a nap whenever we need one.

This is the 1st napping pod shop located in Uptown PJ Malaysia and they aim to boost your productivity hence GET your power nap here!

Let’s check out their cozy interior…

There is a small bulb if you need light, and they do have option for portable massage, refreshments, blankets etc.

Only 1 pax in a pod at one time. This is to ensure silent for all to enjoy the effective nap. There are ladies corner if you prefer more privacy, after the floral curtain. 4 pod in total. Air conds are strong at some pod, some may be warmer just nice. You can get assistance from the staff as they are pretty helpful.

Washroom is available if you want to refresh with a bath, but do bring your own towel. Towel is available at a minimal charge if you need one.

Being in a “pod” you will have all the privacy to sleep. It doesn’t come with a door, as the regulation is no “hanky panky”.. ;P

Kids love the atmosphere as they need not share. They enjoyed it as it tones them down from running and jumping.

I’m So Sleepy is targeting corporate and individuals and maybe not kids at the moment. Else, they need nanny for babysitting. Perhaps something to look at in the future. Just my 2 cents opinion.

Overall, a good concept, and reminds me of Korea’s hostel – in some way.

No fret on cleanliness as they change it every time after each guest left.

Check out their latest promotion!
