We have the same scare over here sometimes and I am not too happy
with this approach. Why? Because the reaction of people is not to cut
down the amount of toxins that we add to the environment, but to
switch to formula... Adding more waste to the environment. I'd rather
they just want to ban toxins because it intoxicates everyone -
already in the womb - , not only our breastfed babies. Breastfeeding
even mends some of the bad that was done in the womb...
