Ep. 132 - Exposing Infant Formula: Part 1
October 31, 2024 · 30 min

Breast milk is truly a miracle food designed specifically for babies, and in this episode, I delve into the critical reasons why formula should be avoided unless absolutely necessary. Many parents find themselves overwhelmed in grocery aisles filled with various formulas, often marketed as healthy options, but the truth is that most of these products contain harmful ingredients that can negatively impact a child's health. I discuss the implications of using formulas that are laden with corn syrup, vegetable oils, and other synthetic additives that lack the vital nutrients found in mother's milk. Furthermore, I emphasize the importance of understanding the unique composition of human milk, which cannot be replicated in a lab or a plastic tub. By the end, I aim to empower parents with knowledge about healthier alternatives and the potential dangers of choosing commercial formulas for their infants.
