Is it good for an adult man to drink breast milk?

A piece of news in Taiwan, China recently became a hot search. A nanny secretly drank the breast milk that the hostess originally intended for her child. After being discovered by the hostess, she not only did not feel guilty, but also claimed that she drank it secretly because she was anemic and needed breast milk. I think many people only know that breast milk is very nutritious, but it is usually given to children. So, can adults also drink breast milk? And can drinking breast milk really replenish blood and qi as the nanny often says? Let's take a look with Suiwang editor below!

First of all, there is one thing that is certain, that is, adults also drink breast milk. But if you really want to achieve certain practical effects by drinking breast milk, it is not possible.

Although breast milk contains iron, it has only a limited effect on the amount of iron required by adults. Therefore, it has no actual effect of replenishing blood and qi. Therefore, the above saying that drinking breast milk can replenish blood and qi is actually unreasonable.

Can adults really supplement nutrients by drinking breast milk?

Many people think that breast milk is very nutritious, so adults can also supplement nutrition by drinking breast milk. So some people will continue to get breast milk through some means. But the editor said that the objective fact is not what everyone thinks.

There is a reason why breast milk is said to be the best food for newborns. The protein in breast milk contains pathogenic antigens, which are not easily dissolved by the newborn's stomach and intestines, but are immediately digested and absorbed. Therefore, drinking breast milk can improve the baby's immunity.

However, for adults, this type of protein will be directly decomposed after passing through the intestines. Therefore, if adults want to increase their immunity by drinking breast milk, it is impossible.

Of course, this also includes drinking breast milk to treat cancer. There was a real example in Australia before, where a girl and her father's milk fought cancer. Although this individual's behavior is very touching, this kind of personal behavior is also meaningless, because drinking breast milk cannot have an anti-cancer effect.

Therefore, it is difficult for adults to supplement their nutrition by drinking pure milk. The nutrients in milk are only suitable for the growth and development requirements of newborns. For adults, it is just like drinking water.

Finally, I would like to say that breast milk can only fully exert its effectiveness in the body of a newborn, so I hope that every mother can ensure exclusive breastfeeding as much as possible!
