Abstract
Obesity has become a national problem. It has a serious impact on health. Precursors of childhood obesity have been studied for decades but often do not start until school age. When the investigation begins during the perinatal period, it is clear that excessive weight gain in pregnancy is a significant contributor. Infant studies dramatically demonstrate the protective constituents of human milk as well as the importance of the process of suckling of the breast in obesity protection. It is concluded that obesity prevention begins with breastfeeding.
