the kindness of breastfeeding mammals


A friend just showed me the greatest kindness. I am applying for a research-type job in the area of public health and this friend just sent me a myriad of information about public health trends and research. Much of the information was in regards to breastfeeding which I believe is the study area that I would be working in, if I got this job. I am very grateful to my friend for sharing all of her knowledge with me; she is indeed a smart cookie!I learned a great deal about the benefits of breastfeeding just from reading her message. For example, breastfeeding protects mammals against certain kinds of infections and illnesses. In humans, it increases the likelihood that a person who was breastfeed will have lower cholesterol, compared to those whom were feed with formula. Most shocking was the fact that breast milk changes as mammals develop, in order to ensure that it is always providing the proper nutritional balance. The wonders of breast milk! Therefore, I have concluded that mammals of all persuasions, who have mammary glands, show their young the greatest and most life-sustaining kindness by offering them breast milk. Thanks to my friend for this information and thanks to mammals of the world for having mammary glands!
