WEll I think it needs saying.....not recieving breastmilk is
associated with increased childhood cancers and we just saw another
study linking it with lower IQs.
Not that we shouldn't all feel terrible about this. It's shocking to
think that nasty stuff could be getting into breastmilk. It's a big
shame. It's too bad that this upsets everybody so much that they
forget that the disadvantages of formula are still far more
significant than the purported levels of toxins in breastmilk.
I'd love to know what the levels of various toxins are in formula!
