Drinking Breast Milk to Build Muscle

Interesting, article is skeptical. https://www.insidehook.com/daily_brief/health-and-fitness/apparently-men-are-drinking-breast-milk-to-build-muscle?eid=9583698cb52ed2e70f62a50c57b34f09&utm_source=InsideHook&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=nation

(Breast) milk is for babies, not mature animals.

In fact there are studies linking the presence of growth hormones (beneficial to babies) in breast milk to enhancing the growth of neoplasms in mature animals.

Wow...I never even thought about that.

But it is like this: A few people just believe in some "super foods" regardless of scientific evidence, as Susie's article suggests. And although a nutritional value is not given for mature animals, one might say some people like to drink it - the same way they might like to drink a glass of wine.

The other aspect is that "normal" cow milk you can buy in shops is a very closely monitored food. So if the cows are sick or they get some drugs, the farmer is supposed to throw the milk away - and not sell it. With human milk it is the same - the only difference is that the farmers (???) do not have any knowledge...

Sorry I call bullshit, we need dairy when we are young to build bone muscle and teeth, after we become adults it doesn't make much difference.

Fact of the matter as we age we eat less and less dairy ,many Americans only consume dairy as cream in there coffee . On a related note I am a cheese and yogurt freak ,both are technically dairy but are better they are fermented foods just as sauerkraut, Jim Che and many others , fermented foods are really good for your health according to science .

But just as we know smoking tobacco leads to cancer ,we are unable to figure out why smoking a pipe leadß to longer life ,my grandfather started smoking a pipe at 15 ,he smoked 3 X's a day and lived yo be 101 ,so i say skip the tit and hit the pipe ,theres actual science there.

Actually my sisters Mother in Law started smoking when she was 15 and quit after a stroke at 80. She's now 85 and still going but just isn't quite all there and the smoking did harden all her arteries. She probably cut off 10 or 15 good years by smoking . Your grandfather had good genes and tolerated tobacco better than most but I don't think you will find any doctors willing to recommend it. While I don't see drinking breast milk will build any muscle in adults it does sound like a fun thing to try !
