🔥 This why a global legal framework to regulate commercial milk formula is needed NOW!!! How the U.S. Waged a Global Campaign Against Baby Formula Regulation — ProPublica propublica.org/article/how-am…
I applaud civil society as they have often supported countries to stand together against the bullies & lobbyists. It is not easy with the threats the US government make.

Many of us know it happens. Many of us have witnessed it first-hand. Now @propublica puts it out there in the open. Business DOES negatively interfere with public health no matter what they say. propublica.org/article/how-am…
Proud to be quoted & more people need to be shocked & angered. Thanks @propublica for this expose.

We MUST end conflict of interest in academia & amongst health professionals in nutrition - no corporate funds without strings attached no matter how they deny it or hide it - experience has shown that. dailymaverick.co.za/article/2024-0…
Unnecessary & possibly harmful - why would any mother choose to feed these to her child?

UNICEF will continue to support parents, families, governments and youth advocates to get junk food and junk food marketing out of children's faces, out of children's lives... and we will not give up.

There are six times as many outdoor ads in the most deprived areas of England as there are in the least deprived. Extraordinary new report by @adfreecities which shows how much advertising affects health and how it targets low income communities🧵 theguardian.com/media/2024/mar…
The evidence grows - UPF are unhealthy bmj.com/content/384/bm…
Academic conflict of interest MUST STOP - it is jeopardizing public health. Big companies, like Nestlé, are funding health research in South Africa - why this is wrong (theconversation.com)
Proud to have completed a further course in public speaking using storytelling & was so glad to have it reconfirmed that key to any talk is 1. Be good 2. Be brief 3. Be gone inhttps://sgq.io/lEwoBVj via @getsmarter
The UPF industry coordinate a network of powerful actors to counter opposition, block govt regulation, & cast doubt on the harms of UPFs. But which UPF corporations & corporate interest groups are central to this network & the UPF industry’s lobbying & political activity? 👇🏼
Good to see the ASEAN guidelines published at last.

574K Followers 4K Following@jbadham 100% there are many, many brave people around the world who risk so much, up to and including their lives, to protect women and children from unethical marketing of infant formula!
SHOCKING reading - THIS 👇is why 'growing up' and 'toddler' milks should no longer be ignored by UK policy makers. Inaction simply reeks of industry interference. @DHSCgovuk #EndExploitativeMarketing
The US has been working on behalf of the baby formula industry to quash regulation around the globe — even for questionable products like “toddler milk,” which critics call unhealthy and doctors say is unnecessary. My story: propublica.org/article/how-am…
Yes. Commercial milk formula companies target ALL levels - from caregivers to government to the media environment - all in service to increase profits, at a huge cost to health. Enormous implications for health equity. thelancet.com/series/Breastf…
**Extraordinary** story on how the US undermines global health: How the U.S. Waged a Global Campaign Against Baby Formula Regulation propublica.org/article/how-am… @hvogell
Documents obtained by ProPublica show a stark rift between trade and health officials over international efforts to regulate toddler milk. The records provide a rare, candid glimpse into U.S. policymaking around children's health. projects.propublica.org/toddler-formul…
Every mother & health official should read this article on how the US helps its companies profits by preventing policies protecting #breastfeeding. Proud to have contributed to the evidence of US meddling to harm breastfeeding. @PhilBakerNZ @dcmccoy11 @SenatorWong @DavidPocock
Thai health experts tried to stop aggressive advertising for all baby formula. Officials feared mothers could be persuaded to forgo breastfeeding. But the $47B formula industry fought back, enlisting the help of the US government. propublica.org/article/how-am…
🔥 This why a global legal framework to regulate commercial milk formula is needed NOW!!! How the U.S. Waged a Global Campaign Against Baby Formula Regulation — ProPublica propublica.org/article/how-am…
@jbadham @propublica We have seen US Govt bully countries at the World Health Assembly to weaken resolutions in favour of industry interests. They threaten withdrawal of aid and a range of tactics. We have also seen countries standing together against this pressure.
Proud to have supervised a PhD study of how Thailand was nobbled: ‘Thailand’s marketing restrictions have done little to curb practices like cross-promotion, said Nisachol Cetthakrikul, who has worked in the Thai health ministry and studied the law’. @ANUPopHealth @PhilBakerNZ
Please read this excellent summary of how the infant formula industry works against public health and in particular how the government of the United States of America has done dirty work for these companies to the detriment of of children in low and middle income countries.
@rperezescamilla @jbadham Leadership coming from Latin America, again! IUNS, FENS, Nutrition Society any thoughts?
Agree @jbadham! Sharing the new COI position from the Nutrition Latin American Society (SLAN) - includes abstract in English 🔗saludpublica.mx/index.php/spm/…… 2023 SLAN meeting in Cuenca, Ecuador was guided by this position and was 100% free of COI
We MUST end conflict of interest in academia & amongst health professionals in nutrition - no corporate funds without strings attached no matter how they deny it or hide it - experience has shown that. dailymaverick.co.za/article/2024-0…

“So, while these companies are fueling ill-health and hide behind a few ‘healthier’ products that they push onto the market to create a halo effect, they should not have a seat at the research table,” @Lisanne_duP @sinistralillian dailymaverick.co.za/article/2024-0…

Toddler milks are marketed as beneficial, but they're unnecessary and could be harmful. Great new 730 report. Very well said .@JenniferRMcCann 👏 abc.net.au/news/2024-03-1…
New paper by Barry Popkin and colleagues: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
One more time.... regulating harmful products is not regressive, is not punishing low-income families because the overall goal will always be to increase access and affordability of ALL to healthy diets.
UNICEF will continue to support parents, families, governments and youth advocates to get junk food and junk food marketing out of children's faces, out of children's lives... and we will not give up.
Watch out. Junk food marketing is everywhere. Learn what can be done to get it out of children’s faces.
