Greedy formula Industry lobby group .ISDI - Int'l Special Dietary Foods Industries are funny af. Their timing coincides w/the release of .The Lancet’s #ProtectBreastfeeding series. ISDI are scared & strategy obvious. This is what desperate corporates look like, lies for profit. Screenshots taken before they delete.
Sales of formula milk 🍼 - per capita, i.e. per infant - have only increased year over year.
With US$3.5 billion in marketing *per year* can we be surprised?
