➤ Why does breastfeeding reduce annual health care costs?
Breastfeeding lowers healthcare spending by cutting infant infections, doctor visits, and hospital stays. It also reduces long-term costs from chronic conditions like obesity, diabetes, and some cancers. Fewer medications and procedures are needed, and public health systems save on preventable care. These cumulative effects translate into measurable annual economic benefits.
