My children needed this "formula" for any part of their diet in the 1950s whe the stuff began to show up on special grocey shelves. Nor were myself nor their mother ever thinking of using it. As babies, my children received whole cow's milk delivered to our doorstep day by day, and it was affordable. Throughout their childhood and into the adult choices they made for themselves. They had milk available at every meal in my home. I still drink plenty of it even now, and I'm 85.
There is no reason to go stark raving over the lack of supplement-augmented cows milk, which is simply not a necessarily doctored substance for any purpose at all. I don't know who or why people think that it is a famine-rated loss.
All one needs to do is send the baby's parent to the supermarket to buy whole milk by the gallon, put it in the babe's bottle and warm it up or vice versa, then let the child have at it.
THE SO-CALLED "FORMULA" IS SIMPLY NOT NECESSARY OR EVEN BETTER FOR A BABE, never has been.
Why are we letting the corrupted society around us insist on this issue? The world has not needed it for mammals for their existence until perhaps somebody was conned into the stuff until, say, forty years ago. Why are we fainting over this extreme mental disturbance now? Eh?
