The key point here is that those two fatty acids are found naturally in mother's breast milk. The enriched formula only outperforms the unenriched formula, not mother's milk. A top censored story of 1977 revealed that infant formula manufacturers (like Nestle and Bristol-Myers) were using exploitative and deceptive tactics to sell the product to Third World mothers. Malnutrition and denial of natural immunities, found in mother's milk, caused by infant formula feeding, account for 35,000 deaths and untold brain damage in babies of predominantly Third World countries. As a result of the worldwide outrage over this issue, the United Nations passed a rigid code for marketing breast-milk substitutes in 1981. The final vote was 118 to 1. The United States cast the sole negative vote. <br />Carlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15871674271027612063noreply@blogger.com
