Mayim Bialik On Vegans Breastfeeding
Written by Vegetarian Star on May 24th, 2013 in Actresses, Children, Food & Drink.
Mayim Bialik is quite an active voice for celebrities in the vegan community.
And as a mother, she never fails to give advice on how vegan parents can be better at raising their children.
There’s always some controversy on vegan mothers, vegan fathers, pregnant and nursing vegans, and the like.
The issue over whether a not a vegan can breastfeed is yet another myth Bialik is publicly busting.
The Big Bang Theory actress wrote:
“i am getting so many emails about this… the tragic death of a breastfed baby whose mom was vegan in 2011 is NOT proof that breastfeeding vegans are a danger to their babies. B12 deficiency can happen in adult carnivores… let’s not be alarmist about an isolated tragedy. i promise, vegans can breastfeed. please don’t get cookoo about this!!”
Breast feeding is the most natural way to eat for every offspring. The only thing unhealthy is when a human consumes milk meant for another animal’s child, such as a cow’s. With proper diet and nutrition, a vegan mother provides her baby with the best start early in life.
Check out the article Bialik linked to on how vegetarians and vegans can healthily breast feed their babies.
