You know, I'm not sure why the world isn't clamouring to have serious 
testing on breastmilk.  After all, it can hold onto alcohol, nitrogen, 
hair dye, hair spray, nail varnish, nicotine and many other common 
household substances, like glue!  Think how much money an average 
household would save over a year, with the ability to concentrate and 
hold on to many valuable liquids with one squirt!

My gin and tonic bill, would be, for instance, half, if I just squirted 
some milk into it, and thereby kept the alcohol super duper 
concentrated!  One glass and I'd be pissed for a month!  What a saving!

Using up too much dishwasher liquid?  No problem, one squirt of Super 
Dooper Mama's Milky Magnet, and all that concentrated soap power will 
hang around for days.

Super Dooper Mama's Milky Magnet - extends the shelf of life of 
literally hundreds of products.  Especially babies.

Available at a grocery store near you, usually in the toilet cubicle.  ;-)

However, there is still a huge misconception among caregivers all over the Caribbean ( even as far as Little Cayman, I had a client there a couple of weeks ago)  that the nitrogen ( which washes out) somehow magically stays in breastmilk and can kill an infant.  Since we are "dive capital of the world" ( says so right on the sign near my house...) I get lots of calls from concerned tourists and am continuously trying to help clear the issue.
