Breastfeed

Attention all mothers-to-be! The longer you breastfeed your baby the greater your breast cancer risk is reduced, according to a study published in the July 20, 2002, issue of The Lancet. – Prevent Cancer Foundation (http://preventcancer.org/)

It is best for mothers to breastfeed exclusively for up to 6 months and then add other liquids and foods. – American Institute for Cancer Research (http://www.aicr.org/)
