Infant Formula Makers Are Using Social Media to Undermine Breastfeeding, the WHO Says
Infant-formula makers use social media and influencers to target women and boost sales, undermining efforts to increase breastfeeding rates, according to a new study by the World Health Organization. Companies use personalized content through apps, paid influencers and advice forums to reach consumers, the WHO report said, adding these are often not recognizable as advertising. The results build on the WHO’s largest ever study on infant formula marketing, and come at a challenging time for infant-formula makers.
