Does Breast Feeding Increase IQ?
More Or Less asks if breastfeeding really makes babies brainy, ѿý Trending investigates the Iraqui self-styled Rambo, and the Why Factor wonders why the death penalty persists.
More Or Less asks if it’s true that breastfeeding increases babies’ IQ. Ruth Alexander and Hannah Moore explore the evidence from a 30 year study that claims breastfed babies become more intelligent, higher earning adults, with Dr Stuart Ritchie of Edinburgh University. ѿý Trending investigates the man the Iraquis are calling the Angel of Death: has Abu Azrael really just emerged as a hero from the rubble of Tikrit with several pages on Facebook dedicated to him or is he just part of the online propaganda war alongside ISIS? And there’s a report on the growing trend of “space invasive comedy”. In the Why Factor, Mike Williams asks why the death penalty persists in more than 50 countries for certain crimes. He talks to a former American prison officer who presided over 33 executions in the state of Ohio and to a former death row prisoner in Nigeria who narrowly escaped the gallows.
