motherDon’t worry all you mothers, it is still considered the ideal situation to feed your newborn yourself -although thankfully for all the other women out there who cannot breast-feed for whatever melange of reasons there are viable alternatives to this nourishment - and now French scientists may have figured out that breast-feeding helps to protect your child from various allergies in their future childhoods and adult lives.

According to organicconsumers.org, The French research, published in Nature Medicine, shows female mice exposed to allergens can pass them directly to their offspring in milk. This allows the newborns to become “tolerant” of the substance.” As with most early scientific findings, these results have not been proven to exist in the ame plane with humans, however every bit of research and scientific finding paves the way for more research and more scientific findings that may well discover new things to help our newborns in life.

Research is the key, and it’s always nice when new findings just reiterate why a common practice is a good thing.
