In a message dated 97-10-04 22:17:07 EDT, you write:

<< "Freezing does not kill yeast, so feed the baby any milk collected during
 the yeast infection within 24 hours of pumping.  If breastmilk has been
 stored in the freezer during a bout with yeast, it could be brought to a
 boil to kill the yeast."

 She cites Rosa C. et al. Yeasts from human milk collected in Rio de
 Janeiro, Brazil.  Rev Microbiol 21(4):361-363, 1990. >>

Please forgive me if this is a dumb question, but won't boiling the EBM have
the same effect as microwaving it--in other words destroy much of the
nutritional value?
