Another interesting thing to note about a person's IQ is that it is not limited to just genetics alone. While having smart parents certainly does influence how a person is going to develop, there are several different factors parents can undertake, in order to ensure that their child has the highest IQ possible. One such factor that can help any child, is to make sure to breastfeed naturally.
According to a recent study, children that were breastfed had higher IQ on average, and they did better in academic circles. The study was performed in 2008, and it measured the cognitive development and abilities of children during a 6.5-year period, meaning the data found by the study is relevant and well measured. The study concluded that there is a direct correlation between breastfeeding and higher scores on IQ tests.
