affect breastmilk production? >>
Barbara,
I'm not sure about humans, but the news this morning ran a story regarding
the milk production in cows here in south Texas. The high heat and humidity,
resulting is a heat index well over 100 degrees, has reduced the milk
production of most of the cows in the area. Very interesting!
