Since 1968, after the excellent work of Ben Haygard at the University of Arizona, which we know that human milk in the state of Arizona, contained abnormal amounts of 6 insecticides! The contamination was so high, which, if applied rigorously to U.S. law, a woman breastfeeding, could not get out of Arizona, because "it is prohibited to cross state borders leading food contaminated."
After the work of Dr. Haygard, the scientific world started to examine more closely the contamination of human milk. Until 1998, the date of publication of the last book of Pharmacology Publisher of Guanabara, 141 (one hundred and forty-one!) Toxic or potentially toxic substances were found in the "milk" - use quotes because I do not know paternal human milk. These substances are morphine, cocaine, codeine, alcohol, nicotine and almost all antibiotics, including the tetracyclines which are involved in bone and tooth malformation.
That is, a mother addicted to drugs almost for sure will vitiate his son in the same or on the same drugs. We could cite other risks, scientifically proven, such as contamination by adrenaline (norepinephrine) in the milk of a mother or with nervous stress, and various other situations, but the frightening aspect of this article and the first reason was the verification that in southern Africa and Asia, the contamination of infants with HIV (the AIDS) contained in mother's milk HIV positive, namely the vertical transmission of a disease hitherto incurable and fatal is made by hitherto sacred food, the "milk"!
To leave no doubt of nutritional point of view, human milk is the most perfect food for the newborn. However, to be offered to infants, two basic conditions must be met: first, the mother has to be healthy, and second, the child must be healthy!
