Young mothers who have children choose a new nursing techniques to lose weight. Researchers found breast-feeding activity can indeed effectively lose weight because it can burn more than 500 calories.

Mothers who had just given birth and are breastfeeding may not be assumed that they burn more calories than women who went to the gym.

"If breastfeeding is routine for 6 months, likely will thin more quickly after childbirth," said Karen Wosje, professor pediatric from Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center as Chicagotribune.

However, not all postpartum women can get slim body with diet feeding.

"Every day my breast pump to get milk to be thin after giving birth. In fact I have 2 refrigerators to store my milk supply, but my weight did not fall-down, too," said a woman.

The problem is, the more milk produced, the higher the nursing mother of appetite. That's because production of the hormone prolactin, which stimulates appetite. In addition, stress factors and the lack of activity could also inhibit the effectiveness of the diet feeding.

For that, which must be done is to multiply the activity. "You can not just rely on breastfeeding to be thin. Without doing any other activity, it was useless.'s Diet feeding can burn calories, but many other factors that influence," said Professor Karen.

Diet proved effective breastfeeding mothers who are nursing. Therefore, some researchers were inspired to apply these techniques in women who do not breastfeed.

"As long as the same principles and technique, we suspect feed diet can also be useful for helping women who are overweight. But need further study to prove it," said Prof. Karen.
