If you only drank a lady's breast milk, would an adult derive enough nutrients to fill all the daily dietary requirements (assuming an unlimited supply of breast milk but of course a normal human limit on how much you will drink comfortably)?
here's the details for nutritionalists:
Composition of human breast milk[14] Fat
total (g/100 ml) 4.2
fatty acids - length 8C (% ) trace
polyunsaturated fatty acids (%) 14
Protein (g/100 ml)
total 1.1
casein 0.4 0.3
a-lactalbumin 0.3
lactoferrin 0.2
IgA 0.1
IgG 0.001
lysozyme 0.05
serum albumin 0.05
ß-lactoglobulin -
Carbohydrate (g/100 ml)
lactose 7
oligosaccharides 0.5
Minerals (g/100 ml)
calcium 0.03
phosphorus 0.014
sodium 0.015
potassium 0.055
chlorine 0.043
