I wish we could convince more new mothers of the value of breast milk.

"I wish we could convince more new mothers of the value of breast milk."

As do I. I also think that the immune-system-enhancing effects of breast milk could play a role in many treatments. I was given less than a year to live in 1998, but thanks to God, good doctors and a special diet, I'm still here. The immune system enhancement effect of prayer and diet combined to give me a good outcome. Anyone who would like details, just FReepmail me.

I agree. I believe it is a disgrace that the medical community has not tried to educate and encourage mothers to breast feed. I have always suspected that these doctors had stock in baby formula because of all the baby formula ads in their offices and in magazines in their offices. Why any healthy young mother would deny her baby the benefits of nursing, and instead feed that baby chemicals and sugar from a can, I'll never know.

I wouldn't doubt at all that there are anti-cancer and immunity benefits in breast milk for adults, too. I am glad that this is being tested and researched.
