Calling our Dutch colleagues on Lactnet. I have just had a call from an OB
who sounded like he was being interviewed by someone, and wanted to quote
me, asking about a recent report of estrogens and/or dioxins in the
breastmilk of Dutch mothers. My answer to him was that scares like this
often come up, and that breastfeeding remains safer than formula-feeding,
dioxins notwithstanding.
I also said I would find out more and get back to him. That these kind of
questions should be asked in Africa is scary. I have just instituted a
Search or our Archives, I know we have discussed this topic before, but I
wondered - has anything *recently* re-raised its ugly head on this issue in
Holland??
Thanks for any help/comments, and if you reply, I hope that I may quote you
to the OB??
