Kourtney Kardashian has admitted she drank her breast milk because she “felt sick”.
Many people have quirky home remedies for sickness: a hot cup of water with lemon and honey, chicken soup, or orange juice.
The cure for the eldest Kardashian was her breast milk.
The 44-year-old bewildered fans earlier in the week as she posted on Instagram, “this filter is crazy, and I just pounded a glass of breast milk because I feel sick goodnight!”
This is not the first time the Kardashians have used breast milk as an attempted cure. In 2013, Kim used Kourtney’s breast milk to treat her psoriasis.
The pair revealed this did not work.
Breast milk is designed to nourish babies with rich protein, vitamins and minerals. Some celebrities have thought this is a good enough reason to try it themselves.
Kourtney is not the first celebrity to use breast milk; in 2014, Jennifer Aniston said on The Jimmy Kimmel Show that she had tried it.
Brody Jenner also used his fiancee’s breast milk when he ran out of milk for his morning coffee.
In the past, the US National Library of Medicine reported that there have been trends in buying and selling breast milk online. They advised breast milk purchased online is not optimal for consumption.
