breast milk remedy
      #177592 - 02/28/06 06:25 AM

guys, i was having this wild idea. if continous exposure of breastmilk to a baby can cause hiv; what if, you are hiv+ and take breast milk-meaning exposure in low doses. wouldnt that help develop an individuals immunity? reactions!!!

hi

Simply because, breast milk is the perfect source of nutrition for infants and not adults.Breast milk contains valuable antibodies from the mother that may help the baby resist infections, but i doubt it would be the same for adults. Besides who would do such a thing in the first place?

Even i ain't a scientist, however my logic tells me that. Maybe i am wrong, maybe right..i dont know! However i believe in what i am saying and supporting.

Goodluck

Pretty much my thoughts too. The operative word is "ADULTS". My feeling is that something like breast milk administered ORALLY like this would do nothing. How would you collect it and how would you know how much virus there was,,,,or if the virus would survive long enough. How would you store it? I just cant see any possibility that this would, even if administered properly, have any effect on an adult.
