Interesting. Those deprived of #breastfeeding in infancy lose up to 12 IQ points … fewer than 30% were breastfed in the 1960s. ‘The Age of Deceit … abetted by a 13-point decline in human IQ since 1975, probably caused by neurotoxins in …the environment. https://t.co/cYmaJBoiB7

This little one gets to put #PAS2023 on her CV at only 7 weeks old! Thanks for for supporting breastfeeding mamas @PASMeeting so I can show her what #girlpower is all about while presenting on risk factors for adverse outcomes in the pediatric CRRT population. @ASPNeph @lurie_nu
In any discussion of #foodsecurity infants must be included - they are a vulnerable population when it comes to food source. Look at what happened in the US when formula manufacturing was shut down. #PublicHealth#IYCF#BreastfeedingIsFoodSecurity

Artificial #GMO human breast milk brought to you by @BillGates. Hmmm, how about paying taxes, working for equality and supporting MOTHERS instead of cooking up fake food products for us to buy? #climate#hunger#MonopolyBill https://t.co/wLoNeNxHwk @mollyhfischer@NewYorker
Happy #IWD2023 everyone! ♀️
In our recent paper we call for;
📢Much greater recognition of the immense value that women generate for society through breastfeeding and other forms of care work, and their vital contributions to sustainable food systems
📢On governments to fully resource & redistribute women’s care work burdens, including through strengthening paid maternity protections, that would truly enable their capability to breastfeed
📢For an end to the baby food industry's exploitative marketing practices, that systematically undermine breastfeeding, and that violate women's and children's human rights everywhere
And other crucial actions for realising #genderequity
