I have no idea if that's vegan or not, and honestly, no opinion on it's veganitudiness, but I'm curious... Is this a thing? Do bodybuilders buy and consume human milk?

Some will because of street legends around breast milk being more protein rich and easy to assimilate than other proteins. Essentially false but keeping with the vein: the more brawn, the less brain.

That is... Disturbing. It's so easy to access information, why would you drink someone's breast milk without doing the research first? >.<

Brawn, not brains.

It's a strange concept to approach but there are worst things in the world.

Unless the drinker is allergic to milk, it's safe. For a lactating woman it is also safe.

I can't see any harm coming to the world by this practice.
