Ask any  mother: she breastfeeds for the "nutrients" or for the "health 
benefits". It's  all about the milk.

Not that I know it makes a difference much of the time, but this is  the 
reason I try to go back to Miriam Labbok's "flower bloom" graphic of all the  
important things that happen when a baby breastfeeds: child spacing, gut  
maturation, immune system function, the emotional/physical underpinnings of all  
healthy interrerelationships,learning/brain function,  homeostatic support, 
neurophysiologic maturation ( in layman's terms,  not these! :), etc.,  oh and 
transfer of calories, too. I end  with the nutrient transfer, that is what formula 
does, and nothing more...
 
We can only commit to continuing to share all this with families.
 
Peace,
