Breast feeding reduces cancer, heart disease, and diabetes?

How? It just passes along passive immunity doesn't it?

There's stacks and stacks of studies and ressearch in it and some excellent books if you are interested about the physiology side. There are even cancer patients who now have started consuming breast milk as a medication since they were deprived of it in their infanthood....crazy I know!

edit; some of the benefits I mentioned apply not only to the infant but also to the mother as well.
