In her story, she reminds us that printed newspapers are significant because they make truth tangible.Breast cancer touches families across every community, yet the burden of this disease is not shared equally. For Black women, a breast cancer diagnosis too often carries higher stakes, revealing how survival is shaped not only by biology, but by history, access, and justice.

I was having breakfast with my son, daughter-in-law and grand child earlier in the week. He is 25, she is 24, and baby is 5 weeks old.They're both pretty successful in their jobs - both in sales, on commission, so very much performance-based - and they both work very hard. They are ambitious. They want a big house with a big family, and plenty of money to live off. Pretty normal ambitions, really, and once upon a time not so impossible to achieve.I'm extremely proud of them both for having gone against the grain and had their first child so young. I'm also proud of how they have both adapted to parenthood. They live with me, so I see every day how utterly devoted they are, how much effort they put in, how they are learning and flourishing. The way Millie has thrown herself into motherhood and totally dedicated herself to her child is a thing to behold. Breast feeding on demand, everything. It really is a joy to see.Because they've started a family young, there is a very real chance they will go on to have a very big family. They both say that is what they want. My son, Samuel, has now gone back to work, while Millie is on maternity leave. But having both made several successful deals, and with a backlog of outstanding commission coming payable too, they found themselves between them paying £26,000 of taxes last month - 50% of the £53,000 they earned was taken, when you factor in the student loans they have to repay. (They might get some of that back at the end of the year).To earn that kind of money in a month at such a young age is just brilliant - I see how hard both of them work, the hours they put in, early morning after early morning, late night after late night, the persistence - and I'm proud of them. It is not easy. None of their university colleagues are doing anything like as well, at least in financial terms.With the bonanza month they both had, they could have paid off significant chunks of their student loans. But no such luck. The tax man cometh first.Meanwhile, they are so far from being able to buy a house for their young family - not just in the area they grew up, but anywhere in Greater London - it's a joke. I like having them live with me, don't get me wrong, but the fact that even a couple as successful as this are miles away from owning a property of reasonable enough size to start a family makes my blood boil.We live in a Victorian terraced house in South London that was built 150 years ago for a working-class man and his family. Yet a working-class man could never afford to buy this house now, even though it's 150 years old - never mind the highest-earning couple in their peer group.The most commonly given reason why people do not have bigger families earlier in life is expense. And what is the greatest expense in your life? Altogether now, “your government”. By far and away. Lower that expense and people will have bigger families again, earlier in life. (Even the cost of housing itself - the second biggest expense in a typical life - would come down with less government - less planning permission, less building regulation, less market intervention for political ends, less fiat and so on).Quite a few of the houses in our street are owned by the council. An old lady who lived in one of them recently died, and her house was given to a Somali family. So the taxes that Samuel and Millie are paying, and would like to have been able to use towards their own family, are being used to house another family not just from another country, but another continent never mind another culture. I've no doubt their needs are great. They get the house they need. We pay. How many more families not from the UK are we expected to sponsor - and delay/minimize our own procreation for?We are literally taxing our own to enable to the procreation of others. As I say in the title, we are taxing ourselves into oblivion.“Have you ever known taxes to actually go down?” My son asked me.“Well,” I said. “They came down a bit in 1980s under Thatcher”.It might feel relatively recent to me, but that was a good 15 years - half a generation - before my son was born in 2000. And even under Thatcher and Reagan, it's worth remembering, the state actually grew.The state continued to grow in the 90s and 00s, and, by the time you factor in all the various stealth taxes that got introduced, not least fiscal drag - perhaps the most odious of the lot - as well as currency debasement, so did taxes.Now, because of fiscal drag, you see teachers paying higher rates of Income Tax. It's not in any way exceptional in London to earn more than 50 grand. You haven't got a hope of having any kind of lifestyle, if you don't. I dread to think how many Londoners - those that work hard at least - are paying higher rates of tax. And for what?What chance do these people have of buying a home and starting a family?And all this money is being taken to spent on what, exactly? Not potholes, that's for sure.I think the question my son was really asking was, “Is there any chance taxes come down?”Well, if you look at Britain since World War II - actually since World War I - the growth in the state has been relentless and inexorable. So the rise in taxes we must pay has been inexorable. I'm not just talking about Income Tax. As I say, I'm talking about all the stealth taxes and debasement of currency as well. Is there any realistic chance they'll come down? Liz Truss only tried to slash government spending by two and a half percent. And look what that did.It's incredible to think that at the turn of the 20th century taxation - or the state - amounted to less than 10% of GDP.Even if Reform were to win the next election, how would they realistically cut state spending by more than a couple or three percent? The institutional resistance - the blob, the civil service, the quangos, the media - would fight them at every turn. In short, taxes are unlikely to come down by anything meaningful.We cannot get this country purged until the currency collapses. That's the only way I see it happening. It's very sad. If you live in a Third World Country such as the UK, I urge you to own gold or silver. The pound is going to be further devalued. The bullion dealer I recommend is The Pure Gold Company. Pricing is competitive, quality of service is high. They deliver to the UK, the US, Canada and Europe or you can store your gold with them. More here.My son, who is not particularly political, observes the absurdity of it: many people who build wealth, the most productive and talented, are leaving because of high taxes, and we replace net contributors with net takers. The country is systematically driving away the people who create value while importing those who consume it. It's economic suicide by design.As readers of Daylight Robbery will know, I regard taxation as the best measure of freedom there is. The more heavily taxed societies - where obviously there is limited economic freedom - tend to be the societies where there is limited freedom of speech, freedom of movement, freedom of thought, freedom to experiment and all the rest of it.Freedom of movement in the UK is limited by the cost of movement - whether it's transport costs, petrol costs, Stamp Duty, fines, charges, new mileage taxes - all reduce movement. They're all a tax. There might not be laws preventing movement in the way there once were if you were, say, a serf, but taxes give you a similar outcome. They restrict movement - and thus possibility - because people cannot afford to move.You don't need me to demonstrate how freedom of both thought and speech are being attacked. The two-tier justice system sees people committing violent crimes getting released early - indeed often not even getting convicted - while people who just said words get locked up.I'm sorry to say it, but I don't think even Farage and Reform can turn this one around, particularly when Farage is watering a lot of his policies down in order to give the media less to smear him with, and make himself more electorally palatable. Starmer did something not so totally dissimilar.And if something should happen to Farage, what then? What would Reform be without him? I like Richard Tice a lot, but there is not exactly a huge queue of people waiting to fill Farage's boots.Tell someone about this great article.So I come back to my point that I've made on these pages many times. If you are young and wanting to build a good life for yourself, and you want to be rewarded for the hard work you put in, your chance of doing that in the UK is limited. You're best off going somewhere else. Sorry to sound negative. There are many things to be positive about in this world, but the future of taxation and freedom in the UK is not one of them.Remember the golden rule of Daylight Robbery: fix taxation, everything else follows.But there is no sign of us doing that.Until next time,DominicICYMI, here is this week's commentary - also prepping for the North American tax loss trade.And, finally, I appeared on the mighty Tom Woods Show this week. I love Tom, and he is fast becoming one of my best buddies. Here are links to the interview on Apple podcasts, Spotify and YouTube. This is a public episode.

There is something incredibly liberating that happens when you realize your genes are not a life sentence. We have all been told that if a gene runs in your family, you're destined to live out the same story. Celiac. MTHFR. Hashimoto's. Breast cancer genes. We're taught to brace ourselves instead of learning how to influence the environment those genes live in. When the gut is overwhelmed, the immune system stays in a reactive state, and in that environment certain genes become more expressive than they would in a balanced body. And as the gut heals and the immune system steadies, those expressions often soften again.When we move through life in the energy of fearing our bodies, or resenting the parts of us that feel complicated or confusing, it creates a disconnect. Not just within us, but within our children. They feel it. They feel the way we brace around certain symptoms. They feel the heaviness we carry when we believe something is wrong with us, or wrong with them. Our energy teaches them what to believe about their own bodies, the world around them, and what is possible or impossible.If your child has a gene variant that society labels as undesirable, the most healing thing you can offer them is not fear. It's acceptance. It's steadiness. It's the belief that their body is not broken. Because when you hold that belief, they learn to hold it too.Your body is not something you need to fear. Your child's body is not something to fix. Every single part of you was designed on purpose. Every one of your gene variants is a page in your story. And when certain genes express, it is an invitation. It is your body communicating with you and bringing you back into alignment so you can show up in your life as the best version of you.. It is your body asking you to come closer, not pull away.When you view your body through this lens, everything shifts. You stop battling yourself. You stop bracing for what might happen. You begin partnering with your body instead of fearing it. And this is where your deepest power lives. In relationship. In understanding. In the environment you create on the inside.Your genes respond to you. They respond to the way you live, the way you nourish yourself, the way you support your gut and your nervous system, the way you speak to yourself, the way you choose to show up every day. And the more safety and nourishment you bring into your life, the more your genes settle into the expression that serves you.This is the freedom of gene expression. This is the empowerment that no lab report can ever take away from you. Thanks for listening!

Children can be one of life's greatest blessings. Breast cancer survivors Alex Miles-Stiffler and Sara Galher-Barlow long for larger families but their diagnoses put those dreams farther and farther out of reach. Alex struggled to start a family before her diagnosis. The heart ache she felt after two miscarriages was unbearable at times, and her fertility challenges only grew after breast cancer treatment, but she wasn't giving up on the family she dreamed of having. Sara always knew she wanted several children. She was blessed with a precious daughter prior to being diagnosed, but her cancer was aggressive and treatment couldn't wait. She had to forego egg preservation, and the uncertainty of fertility along with the cost of fertility treatments will make it harder to grow her family.
"I sat my parents down and said I need your support no matter what. If I tell you, I need to heal by standing upside down, and I want you to say 'That's great, we support you.'' We first learned about breast cancer thriver and transformational coach Veronika Bubenickova's vision for The Lotus Journey. Her message immediately resonated with us. She speaks of embracing a fuller, more empowered life. One rooted in strength rather than fear—and her story captivated our hearts. We knew we had to have her on the podcast. In this 30-minute episode, you'll hear honest mindset shifts. Real talk about those inevitable meltdowns (yes, they're normal), and unapologetically practical ways to unlock your inner strength. All while gaining support from loved ones. She also dives into many aspects of the 7 Essentials System®, such as energy healing, reducing toxic exposure, and how she used creative therapies to elevate her chemo journey.

LEVITICUS 7 — THE LAW OF THE OFFERINGS (ASHAM, SHELAMIM & THE PRIESTLY PORTIONS)“Holiness, Boundaries, and the Covenant Order of Yahuah”Teachers: Kerry & Karen BattleAhava ~ Love AssemblyToday's class enters Leviticus 7 — the covenant blueprint that completes the offering system, revealing how guilt, gratitude, purity, and priestly inheritance intertwine to maintain order in Israel.This is not ritual.This is the architecture of Yahuah's kingdom.Leviticus 7 establishes the laws governing:1. The Asham — the guilt offering that exposes hidden motives (Lev 7:1–5)2. Priestly Access — who may eat what is qodesh (Lev 7:6–10)3. The Shelamim — thanksgiving, vow, and freewill offerings (Lev 7:11–18)4. The Purity Laws — who is permitted to eat and who is cut off (Lev 7:19–21)5. The Eternal Ban — no blood and no chelev, forever (Lev 7:22–27)6. The Priestly Portions — breast, thigh, wave, and heave (Lev 7:28–34)7. The Inheritance Law — Yahuah gives portions to Aharon's sons (Lev 7:35–36)8. The Covenant Summary — sealing all the offering laws from Sinai (Lev 7:37–38)Each command connects directly to the covenant justice system:Holiness is guardedBoundaries are enforcedRestoration is structuredPurity is mandatoryInheritance is protectedDevotion is personalOfferings are relationalThe altar is centralLeviticus 7 is not a chapter about sacrifices,it is the blueprint for how a holy nation lives with a holy Elohim.I.

Breast reconstruction after cancer can do wonders to improve physical and emotional well-being. New techniques and options, including robotic surgery and biologics, are emerging, as well. What's possible, and how do we make best choices?In this episode, Dr. Scott Hollenbeck reviews current methods, insurance coverage, nipple-sparing mastectomies, nipple reconstruction, recontouring the chest without recreating a breast, and future trends on the horizon.Listen in for his insights!
Breast cancer often surfaces in the moments people don't talk about—appointments pushed months out, mixed messages from providers, and the quiet fear that something serious might be brushed aside.In this episode, Michael Desrosiers sits down with flight attendants Kimberly Burckhalter and Derrian Aversa, whose diagnoses are decades apart yet shaped by the same need to push for answers. Kim recalls finding a lump in her early thirties and refusing to accept reassurances that didn't feel right. Derrian explains how today's advanced treatments still sit behind layers of scheduling delays, limited staffing, and constant follow-up calls.Their conversation asks the harder questions. Why do some patients move quickly through care while others face roadblocks at every step? How much do geography, staffing shortages, and insurance policies determine the path long before treatment begins? And what kind of support truly helps when fear takes over and details become hard to process?Together, they offer a clear, compassionate reminder: trust what your body is telling you, speak up early, and keep people close who help you stay steady when the system makes everything harder than it should be.Episode Breakdown:00:00 Breast Cancer Awareness01:00 Early Detection and Kim's Diagnosis04:16 Derrian's Delayed Care and HER2-Positive Results09:48 Why Support Systems Matter10:37 Flight Attendant Risk Factors15:16 Healthcare Delays and Systemic Barriers20:36 Insurance Challenges and Access to Treatment30:32 Advances in Breast Cancer Treatment35:00 Self-Advocacy and Early ActionLinksVisit the Cuckoo4Politics websiteFollow Cuckoo4Politics on InstagramFollow Cuckoo4Politics on FacebookFollow Cuckoo4Politics on TikTokFollow Cuckoo4Politics on BlueskyPodcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

Will Modglin made a statement last weekend at the Texas Hall of Fame Invite. In his first swim, the 50 back leading off the 200 medley relay, he swam 20.00, the fastest 50y back in history. He went onto swim a 43.26 in the 100 back, breaking the American record and coming within .06 of his teammate, Hubi Kos's, NCAA record. Modglin also swam a 50.91 100 Breast, one of four loghorns who broke the 51-second barrier in the event. The funny thing about that: Modglin doesn't train breaststroke. At all. The WUG's gold medalist from this summer gets into this and more in today's episode.

Steve throwing to Sanders???) Joe Bradley's virginity revelation Brandon and Kelly's dangerously inevitable hookup A stunning amount of talk about Donna Martin's head shape What ultimately happens to Joe Bradley on the series And, of course… the breast side up vs. breast side down turkey controversy(Ed tried it.

Check then out on SHOPAssociation.org Today, EPISODE 82… I talk with Dina Townsend Chief Sales Officer at Mamava a company whose mission is to create a healthier society through infrastructure and support for breastfeeding. And, along with partners who share in in their purpose of celebrating and supporting breastfeeding, Mamava is moving closer to creating a future where there is a dignified lactation space anywhere a parent may go. We'll get to my discussion with Dina in a minute, first though a few thoughts…* * * *A few episodes back I had Claire Coder founder and CEO if Aunt Flow on the show. That was an interesting conversation since we crossed what I think were a few boundaries (at least for me) and we talked quite candidly about menstruation. Not just about the biology of women's monthly cycle but about the fact that there are many women who have faced the scenario of getting their period unexpectedly and not have pads or tampons to meet them in their moment of need.Enter the company Aunt Flow who provides free feminine hygiene products in public restrooms, schools and other public buildings and to Fortune 500 corporate headquarters - for which tens of thousands of women are eternally grateful.This conversation with Dina Townsend, I guess you could say, falls in the Aunt Flow camp of subjects. Breast feeding moms was not a subject that I had on the list of things to address on the podcast. But here we are nevertheless with a subject that piqued my curiosity because the company Dina works for, Mamava, checks most of the boxes in our Dialogues on DATA: Design, Architecture, Technology and he Arts” catch phrase.First off…I did not know there was something called the “Pump Act”. For the curious out there, a little internet searching comes up with this:“…The PUMP for Nursing Mothers Act, enacted in December 2022, expands workplace protections for nursing employees by requiring employers to provide reasonable break time and a private, non-bathroom space for pumping breast milk for up to one year after a child's birth.This law allows for legal action if employers fail to comply…”Now… Dina will contend that many employers do in fact provide such a space and also that a janitors closet with a folding chair would be in line with the requirements. Sure, a closet meets the description of a ‘private space' but it wholly underserves the needs of a nursing mother in terms of experience.I am aware that there are widely divergent views on the whole subject of breast feeding – we are not going to go there – except that I'll say that I fully line up behind my wife who breastfed our two sons.My discussion with Dina moves from the necessity to provide environments for nursing mothers to breastfeed their infants while in public places to the buying power of mothers who statistics indicate make an enormous amount of the buying decisions in households to how tying Retail Media Networks - RMNs – to Mamava pods serve a triple bottom line serving People, Planet and Profit. It's a way of shifting our thinking about business from “How much money did we make?” to: “Did we make money in a way that benefits society and the environment too?”Nielsen, Boston Consulting Group (BCG) and Harvard Business Review research tells us that Women drive 70–80% of consumer purchasing decisions in the U.S. and that is even for products they don't personally use. And that their annual global consumer spending, is $20 trillionwhich, by the way, is a number projected to rise to $28 trillion. In many households, women make or heavily influence91% of new home purchases, 92% of vacation decisions, and 80% of healthcare choices says research by the Yankelovich Monitor, Marketing to Women Conference data.And Millennial and Gen Z mothers are even more influential: they control about $1 trillion in direct annual spendingand are primary decision-makers for food, home goods, education, and entertainment – says research by the Pew Research Center.So, women and moms are a force to be reconned with in terms of buying power and why Mamava pods are more than an economic discussion. The behavioral and psychographic aspects of them is important as well.Women increasingly valuebrands that support family life, caregiving, and inclusivity and so features like Mamava pods in retail locations or corporate HQs or parental-leave policies have brand-equity impact.We have known for some time that brands that are considered authentic exhibiting genuine empathic concern for their customer and employeesare major drivers in establishing brand affinity and purchase decisions. The BabyCenter “State of Modern Motherhood” report says that “ 9 in 10 mothers say they are more loyal to brands that “understand the challenges of motherhood.”And then there is mom's digital influence. Pew Internet studies explains that“80% of moms research products online before buying and that 60% follow parenting or lifestyle influencers for purchase guidance.”When you combine these factors with the emergence of Retail Media Networks, RMNs, you have a value add to placing Mamava pods in places that do not actually take up any more space on the sales floors of a store than is already being occupied with stuff that does support the brand experience or selling anything.Use to be that when digital screens came into the retail world, we had kiosks as wayfinding devices. Then a proliferation of screens emerged in the market where walls were more digital wallpaper crowding the environment with content and, in my opinion adding little to experience, arguably creating a shopping experience with more visual distraction and diminishing the overall experience. Painting the environment with the broad-brush stroke of digital media is often ineffective in capturing and retaining attention and doesn't lead to the positive results we think it does.That said, well considered application of digital media like those found on Mamava pods creates an opportunity to provide messaging to customers that could be more like a public service announcement, like ‘get your flu shot here today,' or a focused marketing piece that invites customers to consider a particular product that they may not have thought of prior to arriving at the store.So, you might ask why this matters to retail designWomen and mothers aren't just your average everyday consumers, they're key decision-makers shaping the social expectations of brands and spaces. Retailers, airports, and workplaces that provide amenities like Mamava pods, family restrooms, or flexible shopping experiences are responding directly to data-driven insights like:Increased dwell time and spending when caregivers feel accommodated.Higher brand loyalty and word-of-mouth among mothers.Positive CSR – Corporate Social Responsibility - and inclusivity signaling which is important for both consumer and employee attraction.If you have recently traveled through an airport, you may have already come upon a Mamava pod or maybe you have seen their “bench” version in a retail store. Fed up with pumping in bathrooms and borrowed spaces—Mamava's co-founders, Sascha Mayer and Christine Dodson, applied their decades of expertise in design and brand strategy to solve a problem that was largely invisible: the lack of lactation spaces in workplaces and public spaces and as a result, the Mamava pod was born.Tying together the Mamava pod, and its various incarnations, and retail media needed some savvy about how to create an effective in-store media application that wouldn't end up as just another screen in an already overwhelming environment.Enter Dina Townsend.As Chief Sales Officer at Mamava, Dina leads the Sales Organization with energy, optimism, and a genuine passion for building connections.

As breast imaging is becoming increasingly sensitive, is cryoablation the next frontier for treating small cancers or patients who are poor surgical candidates? Learn from expert Dr. Robert Ward, associate professor and program director of the Breast Imaging Fellowship at Brown University as he provides a contemporary overview of the innovative field of breast cryoablation. --- SYNPOSIS Dr. Ward shares his journey to becoming an expert in breast cryoablation, from his start in residency to his well-developed service line today. He details his experience enrolling patients in the FROST Trial, which is investigating the role of breast cryoablation as an alternative for surgery in patients with early stage invasive breast cancer. The conversation also covers the intricacies of the procedure, patient selection criteria, pre- and post-procedural care, and the significance of receptor positivity and clinical markers in treatment choices. Dr. Ward talks through the challenges in needle positioning prior to ice ball formation and the possibility of treating tumors close to the skin surface given appropriate wound care. The discussion concludes with a future look at how cryoablation could change the current paradigm of breast cancer care. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction 01:39 - The Rise of Breast Cryoablation06:40 - Challenges and Considerations in Cryoablation07:59 - Patient Referral and Evaluation Process13:35 - Equipment and Techniques for Cryoablation23:29 - Procedure Steps and Needle Positioning26:11 - Post-Procedure Thawing and Patient Expectations28:35 - Post-Procedure Care and Follow-Up34:20 - Future of Cryoablation in Breast Cancer Treatment38:01 - Conclusion --- RESOURCES FROST Trialhttps://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT01992250 Brown et al., Strategies to Optimize Success in Breast Cancer Cryoablation, Journal of Vascular and Interventional Radiologyhttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41083146/
Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) are complex sugars that pass undigested to your baby's colon, where they feed beneficial bacteria, strengthen defenses, and support healthy brain and immune development A systematic review and meta-analysis in Frontiers in Pediatrics found that breast milk continues supplying substantial amounts of HMOs beyond 12 months, supporting gut health and brain development into toddlerhood Certain HMOs, such as 3-fucosyllactose, even increase over time. This shows that the balance of individual sugars shifts across lactation and continues shaping your child's development after infancy Breast milk also contains myo-inositol, a sugar shown to boost synapse formation and neuronal connectivity, highlighting how breast milk delivers brain-supportive compounds beyond traditional nutrients To keep your breast milk as nourishing as possible for your baby, prioritize whole foods, minimize unnecessary medications, and reduce toxin exposure. If breastfeeding isn't possible, screened donor milk is the next best option

00:45 The debate around NanotyrannusA hotly debated species of dinosaur, assumed by many to be a juvenile T. rex, is actually a separate species, according to new research. Nanotyrannus was a dinosaur anatomically similar to T. rex, but about a tenth of the size, leading many to argue it was a young version of the iconic species. However, examination of the limb bones of a well-preserved Nanotyrannus fossil suggests it was close to finishing its growth and so would never become as large as a T. rex, leading the authors to argue that it is, in fact, a different species.Research Article: Zanno and NapoliNews and Views: T. rex debate settled: contested fossils are smaller rival species, not juvenilesNews: ‘Teenage T. rex' fossil is actually a different speciesVideo: Hotly debated dinosaur is not a tiny T. rex after all08:46 Research HighlightsAn artificial ‘neuron' could pave the way to build a brain-inspired computer — plus, how bats buck the trend by hunting prey their own size.Research Highlight: Artificial brains with less drainResearch Highlight: By the time you hear these bats, it's too late11:19 A less invasive way to prevent breast cancerAn ‘anti-hormone' therapy has shown promise in halting the onset of hallmarks associated with breast cancer, in a small trial. Breast cancer is a leading cause of death in women worldwide, but preventative measures, such as mastectomies, are invasive. A new study examined the efficacy of a treatment that blocks progesterone, a hormone thought to play an important role in breast cancer progression. The therapy reduced both specific clinical markers of breast cancer and the number of cells that can become cancerous. Larger, longer trials are needed to show that this treatment could ultimately become part of a breast cancer prevention strategy, but the team think that this work shows the promise of this approach.Research Article: Simões et al.18:41 Briefing ChatA new approach to speed up CRIPSR therapies reaching clinical trials, and how vocal cords could be healed using a tiny 3D printer.Nature: Personalized gene editing helped one baby: can it be rolled out widely?Nature: World's smallest 3D bioprinter could rebuild tissue during surgerySubscribe to Nature Briefing, an unmissable daily round-up of science news, opinion and analysis free in your inbox every weekday.

We've all heard the phrase breast is best. But is it really that simple? In this episode, I sit down with an expert to talk honestly about what the research actually says about breastfeeding and where the science gets murky. We break down what's fact, what's myth, and why so much of the “breast is best” messaging comes from data that's more correlation than causation. From IQ to obesity to immune health, we unpack what studies really measure (and what they don't). I also share my own story as a pediatrician who planned to breastfeed but ended up formula-feeding my son after a difficult birth and ICU stay. That experience shaped how I talk to parents today because feeding your baby should never come with shame. We discuss: Why most breastfeeding research isn't based on randomized trials How socioeconomic factors shape the data we see on long-term “benefits” The difference between short-term and long-term outcomes What sibling studies tell us about IQ, weight, and immunity Why guilt over feeding choices can actually take away from connection The importance of supporting all feeding journeys—breast, bottle, or both Want more?
