“Especially for women who are breastfeeding, it is important to.

undergo breast care, having your bath at least once a day and taking special care.

of the areas where sweat is most likely to accumulate and then most of the.

time, making sure you’re cleaning the nipples as well because sometimes in the course of.

the day.



“Studies have shown that lots of Vitamin D helps in.

the prevention of breast cancer as well, so let’s increase our Vitamin D intake as.
