They Are Putting What in Baby Formula Soon?

Amazing to think of how technology and new advances in medicine have turned some people's stomachs. Mine, for example, is doing flip flops over this story. The new story out there now is that within about ten years, baby formulas will have an appetite suppressant in them to ensure that a baby does not become an obese child or adult. How sick is this? I do not have too much to say about formula now as it is, nothing nice anyway. If they do get away with doing this, I would advise anyone with a baby under a year old to breastfeed or use organic formulas only.

Scientists say that putting this appetite suppressant in baby formula, it will genetically alter their metabolism. Hasn't anyone learned that when you artificially "alter" things, that bad things can happen. There is no proof that this will not cause other problems that may be bigger and harder to treat than obesity.

People need to realize that obesity can be dealt with by using diet and exercise as your main tools. Putting something in baby formula that isn't found in breastmilk is just ignorant. You just don't know what the future will hold for the babies that are subjected to this type of medically altering substance. I just do not trust anything artificial or something labeled "metabolism altering", especially for a new baby. That baby is generally born healthy with a clean slate and then you force the baby to ingest something that down the road can cause health problems. it is a sad society if this plan goes through.

It is so important to look beautiful and thin? Society makes it so that people do think that the only way to be is thin. Yes, we all know that being obese is not healthy but would you go this far to prevent it from happening to a child? Maybe if society started preaching daily exercise and less junk food and a healthy diet, things like this wouldn't be so important to some people.

I hope that in the next ten years during their trials and formulations of this new fangled formula that they find that it will cause more harm than good and they just stop trying to chemically alter the world. The children of the next generation need a good start, not one that is filled with questions and problems.
