PAEDIATRICIANS AND INFANT MILK FORMULA COMPANIES
The influence of infant formula manufacturers on paediatricians has been debated for decades. I remember attending my first College spring meeting a few years back and the heated discussion about the appropriate "place" for sponsors. We revisit this issue in a controversy format. Drs. Wright, Waterson and Weaver present two sides of the debate. Given the myriad benefits of breast feeding, and concerns about the influence of infant formula manufacturers, it would seem that support of the Baby-Friendly Initiative and breast feeding through six months of age, should be emphasised by all participants in the healthcare system. Breast feeding rates in England remain low compared with many other European countries. If rates were to rise to 75%, I believe that the debate about infant formula would be much more muted.
