Summary

Introduction

In the United Arab Emirates, smoking prevalence has increased in both sexes, especially among young adults. A lot of students may start smoking because of the behavior of their family and friends, and it is necessary to quantify adverse contributions The aim of this project was to study to what degree parents and peers smoking habits may impact on smoking behavior of students at the University of Sharjah. Around 20 million infantile populace is born weighing less than 2.5kg – over 96% of these are belong to developing states These low-birth-weight (LBW) juvenile are at greater peril of early growth retardation, developmental delays, infectious disease, and death during infancy and childhood. Breastfeeding (BF) is the natural way for infants’ nutrition, it provides the ideal nutrients they need for healthy development and growth Both the baby and the mother benefit from BF on the short- and long-terms as noted by several studies. Recent studies have reported positive results on weight and body composition when dairy products are part of the energy-restricted diet with and without exercise and health education
