Formula for Disaster Breastfeeding/Nestle Documentary

UNICEF explores the effects that formula companies marketing practices have on the health and well being of children in the third world.

This eye-opening documentary reveals how the marketing of powdered milk has caused fewer mothers to breastfeed in the Philippines – including those who can ill afford artificial milk and suffer its harmful consequences. The milk companies’ formula for profits is a formula for disaster.

    This is very interesting, and would be great if it could be on national TV! Are there any plans to show this in the UK?

    Please help spread the word about my petition to Congress. If we have an accurate count of the mothers we loose yearly around the time of birth thenwe will be able to apply the appropriate ammount of politcal pressure needed to facilitate the maternity reform needed to put to practice evidence based care.

    Thank you,

    Wow how sad that is these companies have to feed on people, they have no real idea what the outcome will be.
