this info is in articles in scientific journals 
which usually cost $, so they are not put on 
websites for free. my dissertation is on 
breastfeeding policy. i recently ran across a 
relevant article i could barely read, it was so 
detailed and scientific!

Goldman, A. S. (2000). Modulation of the 
gastrointestinal tract of infants by human milk: 
Interfaces and interactions: An evolutionary 
perspective. J Nutr, 130(2S Suppl), 426S-431S.
