My question remains, how are we all still here? How are so many formula fed adults functioning? How are my exclusively breastfed children in the bottom of their classes, while the formula fed kids are at the top of their class? Of course this is a generalization, and of course I'm not talking about my actual kids,(:)) but you get the point. What we know to be true and what is actually heppening out there are hard to combine into intellectual statements. Yes, formula contains a great number of poisons, but in this country, babies not only don't die, they flourish, somehow, in spite of formula. I can't believe it and it makes me quite ill when my friend doesn't give her babies a drop of colostrum or breastmilk, "It's not for me." But, although my kids never go to the doctor, her kids are there only a couple of times a year. From where does this immunity come? *********************************************** To temporarily stop your subscription: set lactnet nomail To start it again: set lactnet mail (or digest) To unsubscribe: unsubscribe lactnet All commands go to [log in to unmask] The LACTNET email list is powered by LISTSERV (R).
