>4. When does breastmilk help fight disease?
 a) When the baby is first born and the mother is making colostrum

b) Until the baby is 6 months old

 c) Until the baby starts eating other foods

d) For as long as the baby breastfeeds

 Answer b =20

THE CORRECT IS D.
Mom's immune system's antibodies and countless anti-infectious constituents 
of breast milk protect a baby, toddler, older child and even--in unusual 
circumstances--adults from  illnesses both mild and severe.
Breast milk's immunological potential might be considered less crucial after 
a certain age, but it sure is working in the child's favor for months AND 
years.
