I had a call from a mother who is a nursing student, regarding cabbage
leaves.  She had used them herself, she said, to dry up her milk, but had
now been told in her course that it had been "proved" that, while cabbage
leaves were useful for relieving engorgement, they would not dry up a
woman's supply.  What she needs is references.  And who "proved" this, she'd
like to know.  Any ideas?
