I guess everyone is sick of the subject so this is my last post on the
topic.
I questioned how researchers measured toxins in breastmilk and whether they
took into account how the fat composition of breastmilk changes. Well, I
had a look at a heap of studies and they all avoided that problem by
expressing the level in contamination as a function of g of fat. Thus,
accuracy is only a problem when they attem[pt to calculate the dose of
toxin injested by the baby because at this point they have to work out how
much fat the child is getting.
