[ozmidwifery] Fw: Karicare Ad/Parents Jury

2006-09-13 Thread Barbara Glare Chris Bright



Hi,

check this out. This ad is one of the most 
appalling examples of the insidious methods formula companies use to advertise 
their product.
I'd encourage everyone to vote.

3: Karicare Toddler Gold Formula Ad description: Claymation bear with 
toddler bear. She talks about feeding her child Karicare instead of regular cows 
milk. "Nature's next step."Parents concerns:- "Very false 
advertising by saying the mother didn't want to introduce the milk of another 
species so is giving formula instead. It is a cows milk derivative and really 
high in sugar so very false."- "It vilifies regular cows milk but the 
product actually contains cows milk."Fact:- Made with whole cows milk 
powder.- High in added sugar in the form of maltodextrin and dextrose.- 
World Health Organisation recommends "all babies are exclusively breastfed for 
at least the first six months of life and together with complementary food, 
breastfed ideally for up to two years." (The Public Health Association of 
Australia, 2006) [Non-text portions of this message have been
