Kourtney Kardashian Revealed WHAT She Does With Her Breast Milk, and People Are Shocked

Many celebrities turn to unconventional methods for treatment and rejuvenation. However, Courtney Kardashian’s recent statement regarding breastfeeding has elicited a mixed reaction even among her fans. Doctors have rushed to provide an answer regarding the acceptability of Courtney’s actions.

In November 2023, Courtney Kardashian and Travis Barker became parents to a boy named Rocky. Since then, the 45-year-old reality TV star has been openly sharing about her new experience of motherhood.

“Breastfeeding ... is a whole other part of it. I try to be kind to myself as my body finds a new normal. The pressure put on us to bounce back when everything is new and different isn’t realistic. Life is beautiful, you are beautiful. Just a little reminder (for me too). XOXO,” she said.

Fans are accustomed to Courtney’s openness and love her for candidly sharing her personal life. However, a recent admission from the woman has sparked mixed reactions.

In a candid Instagram story shared with her millions of followers, Kourtney revealed her surprising tactic for alleviating illness. The text in her post read, «I just pounded a glass of breast milk because I feel sick ... goodnight!» This revelation from the reality TV star left many questioning the efficacy of such a remedy and whether there’s any merit to it beyond mere creativity.

At 44, Kourtney is no stranger to controversy or unconventional parenting choices. With a family that includes children from her previous relationship with Scott Disick and her latest addition, Rocky Thirteen, born in November 2023, she’s often in the spotlight for her family dynamics and lifestyle decisions. From co-sleeping with her older children to allowing her son Reign to experiment with hair dye, Kourtney’s parenting philosophy has frequently raised eyebrows.

Yet, her choice to turn to breast milk for its purported healing properties adds a new layer of intrigue to her wellness repertoire. Breast milk, long known for its nutritional benefits for babies, has occasionally been announced as a potential elixir for various illnesses in adults as well. However, scientific evidence supporting its efficacy in this regard remains scarce.

A notable 2015 study shed light on the risks associated with purchasing breast milk online, highlighting concerns regarding safety and contamination. While Kourtney’s use of her own breast milk eliminates such risks, it doesn’t necessarily validate the practice from a medical standpoint. The study concluded that any perceived benefits of consuming breast milk in adulthood are likely attributable to a placebo effect rather than any inherent medicinal properties.

In light of this, Dr. Greves offers practical advice for those seeking relief from illness: prioritize rest, stay hydrated, and consider over-the-counter immune support remedies. While breast milk may hold sentimental or cultural significance for some, its role as a legitimate therapeutic agent remains unproven.

Courtney is not the only celebrity who is so open with her audience. Here are other famous women who honestly show and tell what it’s like to be a mom.
