The Hidden Force Behind Milk Formula Conspiracy
I can't stand "conspiracies" that stop humans from being humans. Worse still, for their own benefits.
Let me explain.
We all know that breastfeeding is the best food for infants and babies. Taking from a dad like me, you may ask, "What the heck that you know about breastfeeding? You can't even nurse!"
Well you don't need to be a nursing mother to figure out breastfeeding is THE way to go. There's no need to argue which is a better option: breastfmilk or formula.
Why? It shows in Mother Nature. Take a look at all mammals. What do baby mammals eat? Milk. From where? Their mothers.
And human beings are in the same class too! It's only natural for humans to breastfeed their babies as other mammals do.
I used to think the decision to breastfeed lies in the hand of mothers. Because they are the one who does the "work."
But how wrong was I to make such an assumption until I read this article about two weeks ago, and today's article. Both by the same author George Monbiot. His writing is provocative and bold. And I like it so much!
For those who promote breastfeeding awareness, now they face a bigger challenge than just educating mothers or mothers to be to go the natural way.
There's a bigger player here trying to convince mothers that some milk formula is "closer than ever to breastmilk". And they are willing to put behind chidlren's health for the sake of raking more profits.
If you think it happens only in poor and developed countries, take a look at this statistics.
