[HAPS-L] Cabbage and lactation

["Steve Kish" <Skish@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Here's an interesting one,

     We were discussing oxytocin in class today, and I was talking
about how this hormone stimulates the ejection of milk from the mammary
glands.  One of my students asked why some women put cabbage on their
mammary glands to stop the leaking of breast milk.  Several other
students said that their mother's did the same thing.  I have never
heard of this.  Does anyone out there have any information on this?
