Hi all,
I have only been around here for a few months.  Have there never been any REAL breastfeeding studies where the babies are exclusely breastfed for six months and then for at least 2 years minimum and health consequences looked at? Ex, how infrequent childhood cancers are?  I know that they get lip service, but the breastfed babies are counted that way even if they just get infrquent breastmilk.  Yes, of course I know why.  Cant let anyone lose their profits.

The real MD trailblazer in the 50s (can't remember his name, finally looked at non-smokers and say how infrequent cancer is).  That was really the only way to get the AMA to admit the epidemiology of lung cancer, etc.

I am thinking that no formula companies and no practitioners that have their pockets lined.  Is this compleletly impossible?  Maybe in the Scandanavian countries, perhpas?

I do not have the contacts, money, or ability.  But if there is anyone out there who could take this on, I bet it would BLOW every single other study out of the water.  LLLI could provide the study participants.  :-)

I better get back out of LA LA land.

Take care.
Pam.
