This is from a publication called "Facts for Life." I have the 1993
revised edition, and the statements you refer to are on page 23.
This document is available online at http://www.unicef.org/ffl/.
Go to the breastfeeding section, then to statement 4 "Breastfeeding
helps to protect babies and young children against dangerous
diseases. Bottle-feeding can lead to serious illness and death."
Then go to the 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th bulleted points under
"supporting
statements."
I hope this helps.
Sincerely,
Andrea
