Although researchers hesitate to say it there is something to be said about the health benefits of breast milk.

The Spanish study found that higher amounts of breast-feeding among all milk consumed during children’s first 14 months was associated with significantly higher mental scores compared to children who breast-fed less. Researchers recruited women during their first trimester of pregnancy, measured fatty acids in their colostrum after childbirth, and assessed mental development of more than 500 children at about 14 months of age.

Political correctness, and corporate self interest need to take a back seat to women’s and infant’s health and wellness.
