Studies show that infant exposure to SOY gives nearly a 300% increase in
DIABETES rates compared to BF.  Where is Preventive Medicine here?

If that is not enough to cause medical concern and action, then lets take a
look at 4 groups of hamsters exposed to SOY in SIMILAR fashion as bottle fed
infants.
After Syrian golden hamsters for 16 months were fed:
1) Raw soy flour......PANCREATIC NEOPLASMS occured in.....4%
2) Heated soy flour......PANCREATIC NEOPLASMS occured in ....4%

After Syrian golden hamsters were given 1 injection of nitrosamines and for
15 months were fed:
3) Raw soy flour.......PANCREATIC NEOPLASMS occured in......10%
4) Heated soy flour......PANCREATIC NEOPLASMS occured in.....88% (that is
nearly 9 in 10)

Studies say nitrosamines are the most potent cancer causing agents known to
man. Studies have shown infants can be exposed to as much as 100 times the
amount adults are to NITROSAMINES--they leach out of many brown rubber of
bottles and pacifiers per 1990 tests. So...considering this leaching
increases when a bottle is heated in a microwave......WELL....doesn't this
seem to be one major overlooked factor in baby sickness in day care centers
and increased diabetes rates among juveniles.....AND....increased cancer
rates in infants......hmmmm?

SO.....How many mothers would be interested to know they may be putting a
cancer agent and an estrogen imitator in their little child's mouth if they
FF rather than BF?

AND....as I am proud of how PREVENTIVE DENTISTRY has made a major impact in
reducing dental disease......why doesn't medicine recognize this as being an
area for PREVENTIVE MEDICINE?

Smile-On,
