Hi Pat
I would see it as a great opportunity to ensure that the NAPNAP video
instructs parents to prepare powdered infant formula in accordance with the
WHO recommendations.
>http://www.who.int/foodsafety/publications/micro/pif_guidelines.pdf< I am
sure that NAPNAP will be concerned that anything with their name on it
contains only evidence based advice.  Unfortunately for NAPNA, it might
result in some conflict with the IFC.
