Yes! if you are thinking about how the breast milk tastes and benefits adults it is healthy for any age there is anecdotal information about it being extremely helpful for adults with cancer. Breast milk it's a lot lot like the sweet milk left behind at the end of a bowl of the frosted flakes. Milky and sweet. It is so sweet due to the high sweet high lactose content: about 40% of total calories in breastmilk come from lactose. It tastes like thinned down, but exceptionally, wonderfully sweet and warm like cows milk. Something like you'd imagine fairies might drink. I think someone once said their todller described it as "melted ice cream".











Humans palate depends on individuals taste. The milk does not taste bad, But there is an understandable psychological hurdle. I do know of an individual who regularly who consumed expressed human milk while undergoing chemotherapy because of the immune benefits who is now doing quite well today, and the cancer has been in remission for several years.
