In Some areas and for some baby’s (first months to 3 year baby’s) are not get sufficient quantity of  breast milk because of mal nourishment and mal nutritious food supplement to the mother. So the people go for the extra milk like buffalo milk, cow milk etc to the child. but buffalo milk contain more quantity of fat, protein, calcium energy & lac of lactose, vitamin c etc it may create improper absorption, indigestion, diarrhoea & vomiting to the child. Improper absorption may cause delayed mile stones, protein energy mal nutrition and other disorder. Sometimes due to infected buffalo, container infection, unhygienic condition pathogens may enters into the body while feeding.  So Shunti Bhavitha Ksheera is more effective in these conditions.
