I am changing my recommendation about buying ByHeart baby formula.
Earlier, I suggested not buying it “for the next little while”.
Now, I suggest considering “never” buying it.
An “organic” product does not mean a safe product.

3 avoidable deaths. Vaccines save lives.
3 infant #pertussis deaths this year in Kentucky. "Of the three infant deaths reported over the past 12 months, all three were not vaccinated, nor were their mothers."
We first tested maternal vaccination for whooping cough over 80 years ago. It's safe & effective & might have saved these babies.

When kids start losing their teeth full of cavities, will he finally realize that this is wrong?
First RFK Jr. wanted to take fluoride out of water and has had some success in Republican jurisdictions that think scientific evidence is for chumps.
But that wasn’t enough harm for him, so now he’s restricting kids’ access to fluoride supplements.
