I agree......its that first milk the child recieves that really makes a difference. They have actually done studies on children who were breast fed vs those who were not and in almost every facet of the study, breast fed babies were ahead of the game.....especially with thier immune system. This is quite an interesing point or rather raises an interesting question.....if your Vegan....to breast feed or not???
after a quick look around it would seem most do
The first food for a vegan baby should ideally be breast milk. Breast-fed infants of well nourished vegan women grow and develop normally. Infant receives many benefits from breast-feeding, including immune system enhancement, protection against infection, and reduced risk of allergies. Moreover, as human breast milk is the natural food for baby humans, it also probably contains substances needed by growing infants which may not even be known to be essential and which are not included in infant formulas.
Unfortunately there is currently no infant formula available which is suitable for vegans. There are soya formulas on the market, such as SMA’s Wysoy and Cow and Gate’s Infasoy, but these are not 100% vegan as they are fortified with vitamin D3, which is made from lanolin (a grease produced by sheep’s skin and extracted from their wool).
Fucking wind.
