Cancer Killer?

We all know the importance of breast milk for babies, but could it have a
benefit for grownups too? You might be surprised to learn a growing number
of people are turning to mother's milk as a cancer treatment!


Making smoothies is routine for Howard Cohen. They contain fruit, yogurt and
milk. But not just any kind of milk: breast milk.

After being diagnosed with prostate cancer, Howard came across some Swedish
research that found a protein in mother's milk killed cancer cells in petri
dishes.

 

So he decided against mainstream therapies and gave it a try. At first,
Howard got his supply from a friend who was breastfeeding. Now he picks it
up at a milk bank, which is similar to a blood bank, but for breast milk. A
doctor's prescription is required. Pauline Sakamoto works for the Mothers'
Milk Bank in San Jose.
