Isn`t it amazing what violent reactions there are when we publish proven 
facts about the advantages of breastfeeding and the problems in formula 
feeding.
We can see the pressure from the formula companies.  In Israel Nestle has 
bought out Materna the local formula company so it is to be hoped that the 
Ministry of Health will check this product  carefully for pollutants.
Caterers at breastfeeding and other conferences are not always aware that 
Nestles coffee should not be available.  I have informed all our course 
leaders and events organizers of the Israel Childbirth Education Centre to 
make sure that this brand is not served at our study days and training 
courses.
