I attended a conference .... or read somewhere .... or talked to an esteemed 
colleague ... and learned that BF reduces the risk of breast cancer --  for 
the mothers AND for their daughters.  The more/longer Mom BF, the lower the 
breast cancer risk -- for the mothers AND their daughters.

I am trying to find the source for this assertion ... and pawing through my 
conference notes, article files and on-line searches has failed to tell me 
where the heck I learned this.

Has anyone else heard this powerful nugget?  What is my evidence base?
