“Cultural conditioning has created a great fear of both sugar and sodium. And that same sort of cultural distortion, deriving from totally unbiological purposes, has demonized milk.

There's great political ideology growing up. It's been going on since about 1850, when the need for cheap labor in the factories wanted women and children to work in the factories. And someone invented the nipple on a baby bottle so that the women could stop breastfeeding so they could go work in the factory. That those outside pressures convinced doctors that breastfeeding was bad in the 1930s. My aunt was a nurse at that time, for example, and she was taught that she should feed her kids the approved nutritious synthetic formula.

And then the formula companies saw the market and they began educating not only European and American women, but in the third world countries, teaching women who didn't even have clean water, for making the formula, but to promote their sales they were convincing even the poorest women in the world to buy their formula because breastfeeding was bad.

So for about at least 50 years, the medical indoctrination which they don't want to recognize that ever happened, the the medical profession prefers to erase that from their history. But from 1930 to 1960s, the medical profession was heavily discouraging breastfeeding prescribing even heavy doses of estrogen to dry up lactation to cause premature atrophy of the breast. And lots of women died from blood clots and strokes in the time when they should have been lactating because of the treating them with such high doses of estrogen.

And finally, in the 1960s, studies were being done showing that breastfeeding produces better development of the face, the shape of the mouth and jaws is altered when a bottle is substituted for breastfeeding. And the defenders of the formulas have created their own nutritional standards incorporating all of this mythical stuff about the essentiality of PUFA. Analysis of many baby formulas has found that naturally, when they put polyunsaturated fats in a dehydrated formula, everything that's dehydrated is going to be degraded by oxidation.

And so if there's PUFA in the powdered formula, it is highly oxidized and toxic. But that's sold to the public because supposedly it's an essential nutrient. But what they're selling is a highly degraded form of it.”
