I barely keep up with Lactnet but do enjoy it and learn from it everyday. I
seldom post
but have to say that I enjoyed the spirited discussion and learned from it.

Unfortunately the damage from modified cows milk and modified soy doesn't
always
show up in young people. I believe the floodgates are about to open as all
the
non breastfed postwar babies go into their senior years. I just hope that
we can do
a lot better with infant nutrition this century than we did in the
twentieth century.
Perhaps I would not have lost two close friends and a sister in law if they
had
been breastfed, and maybe my dh wouldn't be struggling with arthritis.
