Gwen,
You said:

"Despite my personal bias towards bf, I must provide a balanced 
informational look at bf and formula feeding in my subject guide."

Just asking..... What exactly IS a balanced look at breastfeeding and 
formula feeding?

Is this just someone else's bias?  To believe that the two feeding 
methods are "equal?"

Is there evidence for elevating formula feeding to the same health and 
safety standard as breastfeeding?  I think not.  Your bias is not merely 
personal.  It is evidence based.  Can you question the premise rather 
than going along with the status quo?
