Dear friends,
This time I will ask not just myself, but all of you: why must every thing be backed up by literature and studies? Why not just accept the obvious as true. This for instance: why question colostrum for a mouth wash as we all know that colostrum is designed, produced and delivered to be the first and only substance to enter the mouth of a newborn. Besides that we know the ingredients of colostrum and thus we know it is loaded with germ fighters. Do we want to prove that birds need the sky to fly?
Aren't there more needed things to be studied? Like how to get more breastfeeding for longer times for more babies and mothers? Like how to make breastfeeding be not only the biological, but also the cultural norm?
Warmly,
