Factor worth considering

Science News,  Feb 17, 2007  by Janice Knapp-Cordes

"Milk Therapy: Breast-milk compounds could be a tonic for adult ills" (SN: 12/9/06, p. 376) states that "human-breast milk is not available for sale" When I was breast-feeding my children, had I known that my breast milk could help people suffering from disease or that it could have helped scientific research, I certainly would have been willing to donate extra milk. While the concept may raise ethical questions, this might be a worthwhile discussion for scientists.
