    Thanks for bumping this kelly.

    Last month I went to the ABA Breastfeeding seminar in Canberra. They had a researcher speaking about this - Amazing!

    They did say that they are yet to know whether or not the baby 'uses' these stem cells, or if they are damaged in the digestion process. Very interesting.

    In other, sort of related, news: apparently menstral blood contains stem cells too. I think I saw that on FB..I'll find a link. And here is the link: (a news article) Scientists Say Stem Cells in Menstrual Blood Could Be Used for Alzheimer's, ALS Treatments - TIME Healthland
