‘Bonnisan’ — A Metabolic Corrective in Gastrointestinal disorders of the Newborn (A Study of 100 Cases)

The foetus during intrauterine life is a complete parasite on the mother but after birth all his systems start functioning and he relies solely on the normal functioning of all these systems for all his physiological activities like circulation, respiration, digestion, excretion etc. The co-ordinated functioning of the various systems of the newborn would lead to a positive metabolic balance and gain in weight. Taking other factors as normal, the digestive system is intimately connected with the processes concerned with the digestion and assimilation of food and ultimately the growth processes. It thus makes a key contribution to normal growth and development.
