When there are diseases prevalent in the season, it is the most dangerous to Infants and so Great Care must be taken in feeding them with proper food otherwise they would give their Mothers & lot of trouble. To avoid the tromble is to feed them with LAC TOGEN which resembles human milk. It is easily digested and promotes healthy appetite. It keeps the Infants thriving and free from all Infantile Ailments.
