I have never had the desire to breastfeed, my sisters and i were fed formula from day 1 & none of us have had any of the issues breastfeeding is said to prevent, so i found this quite interesting...

I was particularly interested by this bit:
Based on this work he concludes the benefits of breast over formula milk may have been exaggerated.
"These health differences are really not so significant in any event.
"When you look at the epidemiological studies and try to strip away the other factors, it is really hard to find any substantial benefits among children who were breastfed as babies.
What do you think?
