And i fed John with this crap
A new study shows that efforts to imitate human breast milk in the laboratory by fortifying infant formula with oils from algae and fungus are a marketing gimmick that puts infants at risk. Study findings include:
1. Serious risks in premarket safety tests ignored
2. Infants seriously sickened by what some medical professionals describe as the "diarrhea formula"
3. Virulent and long-term diarrhea recognized as grave health risk to infants
4. Industry accused of misleading marketing/advertising—discourag ing breast-feeding
5. Novel oils extracted with a toxic solvent that is banned in organic production, hexane
6. Benefit to cognitive and visual development of infants is mixed at best

Exactly FF mums will be kept in dark, they won't want them to know what they are putting in their crap imitation milk, cos maybe more mums would BF then and as a result their sales would drop.

Re: Lab-made imitation breast milk puts infants at risk
To be perfectly honest alot of mothers do not reasearch or find out anything about what they are giving their children, from sweets, pop drinks too processed food.
I take carefull consideration into everything I give my child, I wish more parents would look into what they are feeding their children
