I have heard many of you contemplate variations of this theme over the past few weeks, I finally thought I would chime in and offer a quote I think many of us will appreciate.
Years ago as I prepared a class handout on nutrition for perinatal classes I came across these words:
"Let food be your medicine." Hippocrates
The father of medicine was apparently very familiar with the use of herbs and food as disease and illness prevention and remedies for various conditions.
Clearly this applies to the power of breastmilk!
