Formula feedings and breast milk substitutes are used for infants whose mothers cannot or choose not to breastfeed. There are acceptable medical reasons for using breast milk substitutes, such as galactosemia or very low birth weight. Cow's milk formula is modified from cow's milk to make its mineral content and protein more similar to human breast milk. Soy formulas provide an alternative for cow's milk protein intolerance. By around 6 months, complementary foods are needed to provide additional nutrients beyond what is in breast milk alone. Food introductions should be gradual and avoid potential allergens initially.

This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.

Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit
Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!
2. INTRODUCTION
Formula feedings are used as substitutes for breast milk for
infants whose mothers choose not to or cannot breastfeed or
as supplements for breastfeeding.
Formula-fed infants often gain weight more rapidly than breastfed
infants, especially after the first 3 to 4 months of life.
But there is no evidence that any one of the many brands is
superior to any other.
3. ACCEPTABLE MEDICAL REASONS FOR USE
OF BREAST MILK SUBTITUTES
Malaysian Dietary Guideline by Ministry Of Health (Updated 2010) -
http://www.moh.gov.my/images/gallery/Garispanduan/diet/introduction.pdf
4. Infants
Can’t receive breast milk or any
other milk except specialized
formula:
1.Classis galactosemia: galactose-free formula
2.Maple syrup urine disease: formula free of
leucine, isoleucine and valine
3. Phenylketonuria: phenylketonuria-
freeformula
Need substitutes in addition to breast
milk for a limited period:
1. Very low birth weight infants - less than 1500g
2. Very preterm infants- less than 32 weeks
gestational age
3. Newborn infants who are at risk of hypoglycaemia
4. Infants younger than six months, in spite of frequent
and effective suckling and in the absence of illness,
show persistent downward growth curve
Maternal
Need to avoid breastfeeding:
HIV infection: if replacement feeding is acceptable,
feasible, affordable and safe (AFASS)
Need to avoid breastfeeding temporarily:
1.Severe illness that prevent a mother from caring for her infant, for example sepsis
2.Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1): direct contact between lesions on the mother’s
breast and the infant’s mouth should be avoided until all active lesions have resolved.
Maternal medication:
• Sedating psychotherapeutic drugs, anti-epileptic drugs and opioids may cause side
effects such as drowsiness and respiratory depression and are better avoided if a safer
alternative is available.
• Radioactive iodine-131 is better avoided given that safer alternatives are available – a
mother can resume breastfeeding about two months after receiving this substance
• Excessive use of topical iodine can result in thyroid suppression or electrolyte
abnormalities in the breastfed infant and should be avoided.
• Cyctotoxic chemotherapy requires mother stops breastfeeding during theraphy
5. Mother who can continue breastfeeding although health problems may be of
concern:
Breast abscess: breastfeeding should continue on the unaffected breast;
feeding from the affected breast can resume once treatment has started
Hepatitis B: Infants should be given hepatitis B vaccine, within the first 48
hours or as soon as possible thereafter
Hepatitis C
Mastitis: If breastfeeding is very painful, milk must be removed by expression
to prevent progression of the condition
Tuberculosis: Mother and baby should be managed according to national
tuberculosis guidelines
Substance use: Mother should be encouraged not to use these substances and
given opportunities and support to abstain.
6. Pasteurised Cow’s Milk
Many babies have been on ordinary pasteurised or sterilized cow’s milk.
Pasteurised cow’s milk may be given from 1 year of age
Disadvantages of unmodified cow’s milk;
1. Contain more protein More curd protein or casein, and these thick curds being
less easy to digest have caused bowel obstruction.
2. Contain more fat and phosphate Particularly from 5 to 15 days of age, this
may lead to hypocalcaemia with subsequent fitting.
3. Relatively high sodium Leads to hypernatraemia, which may cause fits and
brain damage
4. Some infants are allergic to cow’s milk protein React to feeding with perioral
rashes and oedema or by vomiting or passing frequent loose stools.
5. Deficient in vitamins A, C and D and iron.
7. COW’S MILK FORMULA
Cow milks currently available have been modified to make
their mineral content and renal solute load comparable
with that of mature human milk.
Cow’s milk formula are composed of
1. Skimmed Cow’s Milk with electrolyte-depleted whey or
casein (protein)
2. Fat mixture of vegetable oils, commonly including
soy, palm, coconut, corn.
3. Carbohydrate Lactose (lactose-free cow’s milk-based
formulas are available.
8. Cow’s Milk-Based Formulas
Unmodified cow’s milk is unsuitable for feeding in infancy
Contains too much protein and electrolytes and inadequate iron and vitamins.
No vitamin or mineral supplements are needed with such formulas.
Other than possibly fluoride after 6 months
The alternative to human milk is iron-fortified formula which permits
adequate growth of most infants
Human milk fortifiers with breast milk
1. To boost the caloric and nutrient content
2. For use with premature infants when adequate growth cannot be achieved with human milk
alone.
9. Soy Formulas
Soy protein-based formulas provide a safe alternative to
cow’s milk-based formulas when intolerance occurs from
immune reactions to cow’s milk proteins.
However, soy protein formulas do not prevent the
development of allergic disorders in later life.
A soy formula should not be used below 6 months of age
as it has a high aluminium content and contains
phytoestrogens (plant substances that mimic the effects
of endogenous oestrogens).

12. Why Are Bottle Feeding and Milk Powder
Not Recommended?
Infant formula is easily contaminated
In case of wrong infant formula preparation, child will become malnourished
and affect the growth and development
Weaker bond between the mother and baby
Child susceptible to:
A. More frequent infections – cough, common cold, fever and diarrhea
B. Constipation – infant formula is not as easy digested compared with
breast milk
C. Obesity – because of overfeeding
13. Why Are Bottle Feeding and Milk Powder
Not Recommended?
For mothers:
More difficult to lose weight after delivery
Higher risk of breast and ovary cancer
Poor spacing if not on contraception
14. By approximately 6 months, complementary feeding of semisolid foods is
suggested.
After 6 months of age, breast milk becomes increasingly nutritionally
inadequate as a sole feed, as it does not provide sufficient energy, vitamin
or iron.
By this age, an exclusively breastfed infant requires additional sources of
several nutrients, including protein, iron and zinc.
Although the growth rate of the infant is decreasing, energy needs for
activity increase.
COMPLEMENTARY FOODS AND WEANING
15. COMPLEMENTARY FOODS AND WEANING
It is done gradually, initially with small quantities of pureed
fruit, root vegetables, or rice.
To help identify possible allergies or food intolerances that may
arise when new foods are added to the diet, single-grain cereals
(rice, oatmeal, barley) are recommended as starting cereals.
Foods with high allergic potential that should be avoided during
infancy, (especially for infants with a strong family history of food
allergy)
include fish, peanuts, tree nuts, dairy products, and eggs.
16. a. If juice is given, it should be started only
after 6 month of age, be given in a cup (as
opposed to a bottle), and limited to 4 oz
daily.
b.Foods high in salt and sugar should also be
avoided
c. Honey (risk of infant botulism) should not
be given before 1 year of age.
