[NSFW] Can we test if breastfeeding increases adult IQ?

Asked by ETpro (34605points) August 30th, 2013

New research shows that in addition to all the known benefits of breasfeeding, like a boost to the baby’s immune system and mother child bonding, breast feeding a baby actually increases their IQ as an adult. So purely in the interest of science, shouldn’t we set up a Fluther test to see if it works for adults? I could certainly use a 20 or 30 point bump on my IQ. I’m sure I’m not alone in that; and that many of you would gladly join me, purely in the interest of advancing science, mind you; in a test. What say you. Volunteer test subject or volunteer wet nurse?
