 Click here: Breastfeeding May Lower Childhood Leukemia Risk

"Dr. Kwan cautioned that women who cannot breastfeed should not worry they
are putting their children at greater cancer risk. Instead, she said, this study
suggests that lower leukemia risk might be something to add to the list of
the potential benefits of breastfeeding."

Why, oh why, not?  Doesn't this beg Wiessingerizing?  And for those who truly
can't breastfeed, why can't donor milk and establishing milk banks be a
priority?
