International Breastfeeding Journal is an open access, peer-reviewed online journal that will encompass all aspects of breastfeeding.

Breastfeeding is recognized as an important public health issue with enormous social and economic implications. Infants who do not receive breast milk are likely to experience poorer health outcomes than breastfed infants; mothers who do not breastfeed increase their own health risks.

All articles are available online, and in addition the website offers many other services:

• Quick and advanced search facilities.
• RSS feed, to deliver our latest articles directly to your news headline reader.
• Email articles directly to your friends and colleagues.
• Post a comment on an article, to add your opinion.
