Akula, It's no mystery at all. In the past, lesser educated people making less money could not afford to buy all of the sterilizing equipment, bottles and baby formula needed(Not to mention doctor visits because the formulas didn't agree with the babies digestive system), so they had to settle for the natural way. The answer to the reversal is also simple. As the medical community began to study nutrition more seriously, they found scientific evidence that mothers milk was best for mother and child. In addition to to benefits for the baby, the mothers body more easily returned to it's normal state because it was completing the job it was designed to do. If you can, try to find a doctors suggestion for a very nutritional meal in the 1940's or 1950's. You will be amazed at difference of opinion about nutrition between then and now. Just a footnote: My mother asked her doctor in the early 1950's what she could do to calm her nerves, from chasing three little kids all day. He suggested she take up smoking! I think she took 2 or 3 puffs of a cigarette and coughed for the rest of the day. She is now 80 years old, in perfect health, and I believe that was her only experience with smoking. Regards, C Kahn
