Breastfeeding doesn't prevent obesity. Correlation vs causation. You aren't very smart. [/quote]

I love when uneducated people say that, without even understanding what they are talking about. Breastfeeding is absolutely decreasing the obesity risk, and has been proven multiple times, using multilevel regression analyses on different populations,  from Canada, to Korea, and to Uganda. Read plosone. Go back to school.[/quote]

DP. You need to stop posting. You literally do not understand what these studies have shown. I am extremely familiar with them all and can cite them all in detail. You do not understand the science or what the papers concluded and those of us with the actual backgrounds here think what you have written is full of it, to put it mildly.

DP - so what does the research say? Is breastfeeding really a non-issue- it gives no benefits? But the milk of another mammal does?

Im not DP, but I think the research shows some modest benefits (baby might be a bit less likely to get one GI bug in the first year of life, mom has reduced breast cancer risk). But nowhere near all the benefits that have been promised. If you live in a place without access to clean water, then yes breastfeeding is much better than formula.[/quote]
