Breast milk is now being sold online, and it is surprisingly quite profitable.
The evidence continues to mount on the positive effects of breast feeding. From preventing allergies to reducing obesity chances, there are many studies that demonstrate the benefits of breast feeding. New research published in the journal JAMA Pediatrics now suggests that breast feeding also lowers the risk of childhood leukemia.
Researchers from the Israel Center for Disease Control and the University of Haifa have discovered that breast-fed babies have a reduced risk for childhood leukemia, the most common form of childhood cancer. The study, published this week in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) Pediatrics, shows that breast-fed children and teens-who were breast-fed for at least six months-are 19 percent less likely to develop childhood leukemia than their counterparts breast-fed for less than six months.
A new research uncovers much more evidence that breastfeeding is healthy and highly beneficial for mother and child.
