Shocking news. Cancer-causing chemical in dummies/pacifiers. Meanwhile effective marketing of dummies means mums are told ‘dont comfort at the breast’, tho it is the safest comforter & comes with a mother & milk not cancerous chemicals. #auspol #bmscode theguardian.com/society/2025…

The quality of care in the first few days after birth in hospital is critical to #breastfeeding success but it also affects the health of the planet. New tools can show the potential gains from investing in better breastfeeding support in maternity care. #ghg #bmscode @ama_media

Shining light on Big Formula marketing certainly doesn’t make the NZ Government/Danone look great! As they knew. Danone has a bad track record in NZ after a bun fight with Fonterra over baby milk contamination. This NZ baby milk scandal is on par with #Nestle debacle #bmscode

Just imagine. Breastfeeding or not affects lung functioning until kids start school. Imagine what these figures would be if the studies had looked at exclusive #breastfeeding! Exposing infants to formula early in life harms their health. But our governments don’t care #bmscode

“Compared to children who were never breastfed, those who were breastfed had better FEV1 & PEF A similar trend was observed for FVC. Furthermore,compared to children breastfed for < 3-4 months, those breastfed for >3-4 m or more had better FEV1, FVC & PEF. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

The failure of major parties to #endexploitativemarketing of breastmilk substitutes in Australia is scandalous & a betrayal of mothers and babies as well as future citizens who pay costs. Captured by Big Food & a deskilled APS. @DoctorChrisVT @ama_media @Mark_Butler_MP #bmscode

Governments must set the standard & lead by example. …Advisory committees, regulatory bodies & harm reduction strategies must be conflict free.
A change in culture among health professionals & those making decisions about health policy & investments is needed. #auspol #bmscode

Direct to consumer marketing of infant formula is risky & unacceptable under @WHO @WHOWPRO International Code of Marketing of Breastmilk Substitutes #bmscode. Pushing baby formula & displacing #breastfeeding is one of worst deceits & exploitation of vulnerable consumers.

👉DYK parents pay up to 37% more for specialised infant milks, often completely unnecessarily?

Yet the Australian Health Department trusts the baby milk industry to make their own rules.. why? #protectbreastfeeding #bmscode @WHO #breastfeeding doesn’t make money for anyone perhaps?

Fantastic! India has a strong & proud breastfeeding culture @bpniindia & so important that facilities for better maternal health don’t compromise successful #breastfeeding. May India’s hospitals show the world how it can be done! Including by keeping Big Formula out! #bmscode
