I didn't know that breast milk kills amoebas!  Amoebicidal activity of milk, Apo-lactoferrin, sIgA and Lysozyme.  Leon-Sicairos et al.  Clinical Medicine and Research 4(2), 106-113.  2006.  Do stumble on fascinating stuff.  Milk proteins such as apo-Lactoferrin, sIgA and lysozyme are able to kill Entamoeba hystolytica trophozoites.
