Cigarette-like Warnings on Infant Formula

Democratic Sen. Tom Harkin has proposed legislation that would require infant formula manufacturers to place warning labels on their products stating that "human breast milk is the ideal method of feeding infants."

Do you think infant formula should have warning labels?

 

Yes. Infant formula manufacturers should be required to place health disclosures on their products.

 

Manufacturers can voluntarily add warnings, but should not be required to place them on their products.

 

Warning labels don't make much of an impact; so it's not worth adding them.

 

No; breast-feeding is a personal decision and warning labels will only make women who cannot (or choose not to) breast-feed feel badly.

 

Other/none of the above

(I've already taken the poll and want to see the results.)

Help us improve the Road to Health website by taking our health survey.
