Lifelong prescription formula diets due to genetic diseases...

[Mister Obvious]

The baby formula shortage has brought attention  to stories like these...

Why does it seem like this "ultra rare" problem is getting more common?

What's the true cause of these conditions?

That seems to be a fairly straightforward genetic situation but...

That's the one I'm suspicious of. It's claimed to be genetic too though. Just crazy.

Not everyone can reproduce together... there are serious differences between people that either make it impossible, or extremely defective.

Very suspicious though...

Life long dependency on prescription formula? Talk about money in the pockets of big pharma.

Just a coincidence though, I'm sure...

Those protein drinks made by pharmaceutical companies are usually made of vegetable oil, HFCS, and isolated proteins. I presume baby formula is made pretty much the same way.

"Vegetable" oil isn't made from the crispy green veggies that are good for you. A vegetable in this context could be any kind of plant.

Some concentrated proteins are isolated using hexane. What is hexane? Does the word "octane" ring a bell? Well, hexane is a petroleum product like octane. Specifically, it's a solvent.

And HFCS... well, you know what that is.

You may as well be feeding your baby toxic waste.
