Breastfeeding.

So, here we are 8 weeks of pumping with the occassional boob thrown in there. And I just want to say...Breastmilk is awesome. Seriously. Breastmilk has not only nourished and sent my midgets growth from the 5th percentile to the 25th in weight and 60th in height but has cured all of my children of a nasty cold daddy brought home. Sure, the boys don't dig the taste but nothing a little chocolate syrup can't fix.
But, really...stuff is amazing Swedish scientists isolated a protein in breast milk called alpha-lactlbalium (don't quote me on my spelling) that has reduced the size of tumors by destroying the cells that they are made up of. It basically attacks the cells and makes them commit cell suicide...how cool is that? Okay...so now that we establish boob milks awesome cancer fighting power how about its use for the treatment of diabetes and Parkinsons disease. Seriously. Boobie milk contains stem cells...stem cells not only have the remarkable ability to turn into whatever the heck you want them too...but have been under some seriuous controversy due to their traditional harvesting. But, how easy are they to harvest now?! Hello breastfeeding mommys! I basically say we are awesome.
Treatment for Alzheimers and other forms of dementia, breastmilk contains glyerophosphochoine, which has been linked to the imporovement of memory and attention in study subjects.
Breastmilk also contains Lauric Acid. It has been long noted that breastmilk could be used on babies faces and scalps to treat baby acne and cradle, this acid is what cures both of these conditions. Scientists have isolated the protein and have found that the acid reduced inflammation and swelling and kills the microbes that create these conditions. It is now being studied in the treatment of adult and teenage acne.
While the benefits of breastmilk are still being researched it has been suggested over and over again that it's benefits are AMAZING.
So, yea...that is my nonsense for the day. Boobs are cool.
