"There is certainly no evidence that breastfeeding is any worse for a baby than formula"
I think this is a pretty awful and underhanded thing to write, makes me wonder if this person is being sponsored by a baby formula company.
It is clear breast feeding gives a child antibodies it needs and a proper diet which the mothers body adjusts over time.
Even if you can't easily measure the effect given the noise in the general population you don't have to be a genius to know that breast feeding can only be better than formula.
- sitkack 10y ago538 smells to me like someone who applies statistics but still doesn't understand where the math or the models stop. That there is an underlying idea of a singular underlying cause and effect for each phenomenon. You know what IS linked with breastfeeding; a much stronger emotional and social bond with the mother. Infant formula is a solution (ha) in search of a problem. For women that have conflicting schedules or don't produce enough milk, fine. But to replace mother's milk because we want to think we can outsmart evolution is ridiculous.
