"Human breast milk is easily digested because the ingredients have been perfected by nature. Human milk contains at least 100 ingredients not found in formula, according to NWHIC. In addition, a baby won't be allergic to their mother's milk. Mother's milk is also sterile, so contamination from polluted water or dirty bottles is never passed on to the baby.

Breast milk composition also changes throughout the day and as a baby grows. For example, a mother with a premature infant has different milk, more suited for her child's unique needs, than a woman who gives birth to a full-term baby. Formula can never reproduce this made-to-order quality of mother's milk."
