anisations health workers government programmes and un initiatives to neutralise them as critics or regulators and to gain kudos by association governments should govern and corporations should follow the rules it is very welcome that who member states rejected a proposal last year to set up a multi stakeholder forum that the same junk food companies were clamouring to be part of baby milk action helped to set up the conflicts of interest coi coalition and invites other concerned organisation to endorse the statement calling on public interest organisations to put the public interest first and maintain their independence from the corporate sector see http coicoalition blogspot co uk the intervention by patti rundall policy director of baby milk action at the world health organisation executive board meeting in 2011 regarding the proposed multi stakeholder forum which has since died a natural death raises some of the key issues about conflicts of interest with particular reference to infant feeding see http info babymilkaction org policyblog speeches posted by mike brady at 6 48 pm 2 comments labels nestle boycott monday november 05 2012 hipp on bbc radio 4 you and yours ignoring safety guidance on making up formula a representative of the hipp baby food company was interviewed on bbc radio 4 you and yours programme on 5 november 2012 together with dr helen crawley of the first steps nutrition trust click here to listen again the discussion was about the refusal of hipp to provide correct guidance on how to reconstitute its powdered infant formula the facts as dr crawley explained are clear the department of health confirmed its guidance had not changed despite hipp claiming in the programme that it had been given permission to flout the guidance powdered formula is not sterile and may contain harmful pathogens such as cronobacter sakazakii previously known as enterobacter sakazakii and salmonella although studies have found contamination levels as high as 14 of tins research cited by the us food and drugs administation ill effects are very rare but can included meningitis and death the risks can be reduced by killing the bacteria by reconstituting the formula with water above 70 deg c in practice this temperature can be achieved by boiling a full kettle and allowing it to cool but for no more than 30 minutes the formula should then be allowed to cool to a safe temperature before feeding the following resources provide this information the department of health guide to bottle feeding booklet includes the instructions click here a clear leaflet to follow if you are using formula hipp or any other or advising parents can be downloaded from the department of health click here the world health organisation guidelines for the safe preparation storage and handling of powdered infant formula are also clear about using water above 70 deg c its report includes background information on the risks and the reasons for the guidance click here baby milk action produced the infant formula explained dvd on behalf of the baby feeding law group consisting of leading uk health professional and mother support groups which includes a short film for parents on how to reconstitute powdered formula correctly to reduce the risks click here despite the clear guidance for parents from the department of health and who hipp told radio 4 that the guidance is unclear why is hipp putting babies at risk by telling people to use water at a lower temperature on its labels it comes down to its own profits and marketing campaigns hipp s current advertising and promotion is based on so called probiotics added to its formula there is no proven benefit of adding probiotics to formula despite the impression given by hipp in advertising such as that shown below left advertising to health workers exposed on baby milk action s campaign for ethical marketing action sheet september 2012 the first steps nutrition trust guide to infant milks in the uk was updated in november 2012 to include information on hipp s new probiotic formula and states a few clinical trials have shown health benefits for specific bacterial strains however on the strength of a review of randomised control trials in healthy term infants the espghan european society of paediatric gastroenterology hepatology and nutrition committee on nutrition have found that there is too much uncertainty to draw any reliable conclusions on the efficacy of probiotics in infant milks they did not recommend their routine use in formula milks for infants water hot enough to kill harmful pathogens will also kill the probiotic bacteria and this is the reason hipp is trying to hide the risks and ignore the safety guidance however in doing so hipp is showing its contempt for the infant formula and follow on formula regulations 2007 adopted by the four countries of the uk the guidance notes from the food standards agency that accompany the regulations and shows how the regulations should be interpreted is also very clear labelling relating to the preparation storage and disposal of infant formula and follow on formula 24 regulation 17 1 d and 18 1 d require that instructions are provided for appropriate preparation storage and disposal of the product the agency recommends that these instructions should include information noting that powdered infant formulae and follow on formulae are not sterile and as such can contain harmful bacteria it is therefore important to be very careful when preparing formula to reduce the risks boiled tap water not bottled water cooled for no more than 30 minutes should be used to prepare infant feeds all equipment used for feeding and preparing feed must be thoroughly cleaned and sterilised before use and bottles should be made up fresh for each feed as storing made up formula milk may increase the chance of a baby becoming ill 25 further advice about the preparation and storage of formula can be found at the website below http www breastfeeding nhs uk en materialforclients index asp advice to consumers http www dh gov uk en healthcare maternity maternalandinfantnutrition dh_ 4123674 advice to health professionals the links mentioned in the guidance notes take you to the department of health booklet on formula feeding mentioned above which states bacteria in infant formula even when tins and packets of powdered infant formula are sealed they can sometimes contain bacteria such as cronobacter sakazakii formerly know as enterobacter sakazakii and more rarely salmonella although these bacteria are very rare the infections they cause can be life threatening to reduce the risk of infection make up each feed as your baby needs it using boiled water at a temperature of 70oc or above water at this temperature will kill any harmful bacteria that may be present unfortunately the regulatory authorities in the uk are not acting to enforce the regulations as baby milk action also recently reported the advertising standards authority asa is also failing to protect babies and their families in the uk when it comes to misleading claims made in advertisements for example it refuses to even investigate advertisments like that shown above see our 24 october 2012 press release what can you do direct people using formula to the above guidance so they know how to prepare it

nestle free week is a time for for people who boycott nestlé over the way it pushes baby milk to do more to promote the boycott and for those who don t boycott to give it a go above gloria joined the successful campaign with her son miguel in 2007 mothers and babies need your help again please sign the petition of solidarity this is helping bring attention to this issue see for example this report in the philippines on 23 october 2012 in the philippines nestle is leading an attempt to bring in a new law to replace regulations introduced in 2007 to stop companies advertising baby milks and targeting pregnant women and new mothers campaigners in the philippines call it nestle s monster bill the philippines department of health unicef and who said in september the draft house bill aims to support multinational companies while damaging the filipino society families the mothers and children questions are being asked about the influence nestle is using to gain support from the department of trade and politicians who are facing an election next year on 4 september 2012 baby milk action received the following message from mom care movement opposing milk code amendments and revision the new name from the breastfeeding consortium in the philippines thank you for your commitment to the campaign thank you for your kindheartedness nestle never sleeps and greedy nestle will never stop amassing profits from the poor people in the philippines who have large families as their consumers nestle leads ipnap a conglomerate of nestle wyeth mead johnson abbott and fonterra multinational milk companies who dangle gifts of any sorts especially to the lawmakers lawbreakers in philippine congress to weaken the milk code law and replace with a pro nestle vested interest monster bill now it is election time for politicians and the big question how much influence peddling was contributed to the election money bag recently ipnap s government ally the department of trade and industry was on the news last week dti bucks the amendment bill in the name of informed choice for lactating mothers dti mimics nestle stand nestle style is to sow confusion by letting the department of health and

we call on our global partners to defend breastfeeding vigilantly because nestle creeps in every legislative process to wreck breastfeeding initiatives in every country nestle masquerade as pro breastfeeding but in truth undermines it by pushing policymakers to make a law that will favor their economic interest and not the consumers they bleed the consumers to illness poverty and death playing with national legislation is their new trick in vietnam kenya hongkong philippines etc keep nestle away from your home away from your life away from your generation s future it is not good

october 18 2012 comment on unicef breastfeeding report preventing disease and saving resources unicef has published a report today called preventing disease and saving resources the potential contribution of increasing breastfeeding rates in the uk unicef s press release states the report findings show that for just five illnesses moderate increases in breastfeeding would translate into cost savings for the nhs of 40 million and tens of thousands of fewer hospital admissions and gp consultations see http www unicef org uk babyfriendly news and research news breastfeeding could save the nhs millions here s a quick response from me mike brady campaigns and networking coordinator at baby milk action this report is very welcome the finding that babies who are not breastfed are more likely to become ill and require hospital and other medical treatment is neither surprising or new the big question is will the present government act when others have failed to do so in the past unfortunately the current administration has taken steps backwards by for example scrapping the infant feeding coordinator posts at the department of health despite these being one of the initiatives included in the global strategy on infant and young child feeding which the uk claims to support some of the countries that have followed the strategy including prohibiting the promotion of breastmilk substitutes in line with internationally agreed minimum marketing standards have seen marked increases in breastfeeding rates brazil being a particularly good example of course in parts of the world without the same level of health service support babies who are not breastfed are not only more likely to become ill but more likely to die stopping baby milk company promotion has to be part of the public health policy response to this unnecessary illness and suffering that is not to say that mothers who use formula should be made to feel guilty for doing so formula should be available for those who need it and everyone benefits if there is accurate independent information on infant feeding instead of promotion from baby milk companies with a vested interest in selling their products don t forget the millions companies spend on their promotion campaigns ultimately goes onto the price they charge for formula the following advertisements all appeared in the same health worker journal showing how each of the companies claims its formula is closer to breastmilk than the other brands they cannot all be telling the truth unfortunately the advertising standards authority asa refuses to investigate advertising in health journals when baby milk action has brought complaints about follow on formula advertising to the public the asa has ruled against the claims that aptamil and sma are the best formulas the claims do not stand up to scrutiny baby milk companies have shown they cannot be trusted to provide accurate information to parents or health workers see http info babymilkaction org cem cemsep12 the government has known about the health and financial impact for years of course for example in 2006 the national institute for clinical excellence costed the savings to the nhs from a modest increase in breastfeeding rates a 10 increase in initiation and found many thousands of babies would not suffer illness and millions would be saved as unicef points out the national infant feeding survey tells us that 90 of mothers who stopped breastfeeding their babies by the time they were 6 weeks old wanted to breastfeed for longer with greater support many would have been able to do so fewer babies would have become sick or even died and there would have been cost savings it is not just about support of course...
