While a researcher was testing one theory, he discovered something else much more important. It is one more instance that (almost) proves what we have suspected: that breastfed babies (literally fed from the breast) are protected from many cancers.
“When Catharina Svanborg and her research associates began mixing mothers’ milk and cancer cells together seven years ago, they weren’t looking for a cure for cancer; she was after a way to fight germs. Nevertheless, the physician and immunologist at Lund University in Sweden have discovered that a previously taken-for-granted component of ordinary human breast milk causes every type of cancer cell tested–to die.” This is one more example of why NOT being breastfed increases a person’s risk of developing cancer. Thank God for this Health Mystery!
