Back in 2004 a NaturalNews.com writer shared his thoughts about the newly released statistic that only 14% of babies were breastfed during the first six months of their lives.
He expresses his concern that despite the nutritional and health benefits currently published as well as the support of breastfeeding by the American Academy of Pediatrics and the World Health Organization so many women continue to use formula.
This statistic is very alarming especially if we consider the significance such a low rate of nursing would have if there was a widespread natural disaster or emergency status in the United States.
