Newsflash: Breastfed Kids Are Double-y Lucky
Posted on 05 05, 2008 under Current Events by screwdad | Comments
There is a new study that shows that kids who are breastfed are shown to be smarter than those not breastfed. According to this article on Boston.com:
“The children in the group where breast-feeding was encouraged scored about 5 percent higher in IQ tests and did better academically, the researchers found. Previous studies had indicated brain development and intelligence benefits for breast-fed children. But researchers have sought to determine whether it was the breast-feeding that did it, or that mothers who prefer to breast-feed their babies may differ from those who do not.”
What the article fails to state though is kids who are breastfed are lucky X 2. Not only could they grow up to be smarter, they get to suck on breasts every day. Ahh, to be a kid again…
