If there is no nutrition in human milk after a human baby's first birthday,
why does there continue to be "nutrition" in cow's milk for a human baby
from birth thru the 1st year and beyond?  The American Dairy Council even
pushes human adults to drink cow's milk thru their "Got Milk?" ads.  The
dairy industry needs to be reminded that humans are the only mammalian
species which drinks another species milk and continues to drink milk
beyond infancy, even though there is no physiologic need for it. DUH.  Do
people not even think before they come out with such ludicrous statements?
The stupidity of the formula industry not only continues to amaze me, but
frightens me as well with their power to influence the thinking of an
entire nation.
