Baby Food and Habit
The infant can not eat the same kind of food that the adult, requiring them to be easy to digest. From its earliest hours, the baby is ready for suction feeding colostrums and, later, breast milk, that his mother’s mammary glands occur as a result of hormonal changes during pregnancy. In the modern world there are alternatives to breast milk, although common sense, pediatricians and psychologists, from the 1970 total replacement discourage breastfeeding. Feeding breast milk is absolutely normal in western countries for six months. Later slowly incorporate solid foods, and weaning occurs after around 2 years.
Therapeutic Vaccination
Also known as active immunotherapy, this technique is to stimulate the body’s immune system to promote the production of antibodies. It is therefore no longer preventing the onset of a disease but to help the body of those already infected to fight against the disease by restoring immune defenses. It has been credited Auzias-Turenne to be caused by his method of syphilization, Shepherd took over with its vaccine against the rage. Contrary to popular belief; however, vaccination against rabies is not therapeutic. In fact, pre-exposure, it is a usual vaccination (injection of the antigen which will stimulate the production of specific defenses). In post-exposure, that is to say after being bitten by an animal may be rabid; it is a passive and active immunization.
