Dear Friends,
This past fall I started studying for my RN.  It is an very intensive
program for people who already have at least a BA in basically anything and
the lectures are very high level.  However, with the exception of my
nutrition professor, none of the other PhDs seem to know that breastfeeding
even exists let alone protects both mother and baby from numerous illness.
 The teacher who taught us breast and ovarian cancer did not know that
breastfeeding lowers the mothers risk and was eager for information.  The
teacher doing both respiratory tract illnesses and digestive tract
illnesses didn't know and didn't seem to care in the least when I pointed
it out (could be - was her reply)  I would like to send both professors
high level research about the  protective factors of breastfeeding.

I am sure that someone out there in lactnet land has some good resources at
hand.  I would really appreciate it if someone could send me something to
pass on.

Thanks so much and happy Passover to those celebrating,
Chayn Fogelman IBCLC Israel
