Support Our Breastfeeding Initiative

Breastfeeding is a public health game changer. It is low cost, low tech and seldom requires any durable medical equipment, drugs, or infra-structure. It does not discriminate: it improves the health of both boys and girls; healthy or sick; premature or full-term, rich or poor.

Breastfeeding protects our infants
from an increased risk of:

  • type II diabetes
  • obesity
  • asthma
  • certain forms of leukemia
  • ear and gastrointestinal infections
  • SIDS
  • impaired neurodevelopment
  • necrotizing enterocolitis

Women who breastfeed
reduce their risk of:

  • pre-menopausal breast cancer
  • ovarian cancer
  • type II diabetes
  • hypertension
  • hyperlipidemia
  • cardiovascular disease (recently determined to be the MOST costly women’s health condition in our country)

Please sign our petition
