Formula for Disaster: A documentary (Part 5 of 5)

Only in America do women need a breast feeding program and systems and statistics. Hey how about this: FEED your fucking baby with the milk god gave you, that's what it's there for! Stop trusting that a corporation or a program is looking out for your interest! Don't have kids if you're incapable of feeding them heatlhy nutrition.

With ensured flexibility for milk expression in the work schedule, accommodation to pump or store breast-milk, and backing from employers and colleagues, women will be able to sustain breastfeeding longer. In the United States, retailer Home Depot started their Breastfeeding Worksite Solutions Program in 1995 with 4 associates participating. By the end of 200, more than 100 mothers participated in the program, and compared to 1998, breastfeeding duration has increased from 7.8 to 8.7 months.

I hope there can be a video in Tagalog that explains the Milk Code to the thousands of health workers, which can be viewed by Youtube whenever capacity building needs to be done.

Baby Milk Action has a campaign of solidarity with the Philippines as they fight to defend their baby food marketing regulations. Search for us - it isn't possible to post the link here.
