Saturday morning I read a small blurb about a large study conducted by
the Harvard School of Public Health which found that "breastfeeding has
little effect on breast cancer"  They report that data on 90,000
middle-age women showed that those who had never breastfed were neither
more nor less likely to develop breast cancer than women who did. This
study was published in Lancet. Any one know anything more about this? I
will try to get the original article and read it as I do not trust the
media to interpret the findings accurately.
