Background
Baby formula is a synthetic version of mothers' milk and belongs to a class of materials known as dairy substitutes. Dairy substitutes have been used since the early nineteenth century for products like oleomargarine and filled cheese. They are made by blending fats, proteins, and carbohydrates using the same technology and equipment used to manufacture real dairy products. Since the 1940s, advances in processing techniques such as homogenization, fluid blending, and continuous batching and filling have greatly improved the ways imitation dairy products, like formula, are made. The sales of infant formulas have also improved over the last several decades. Until the early 1990s, infant formula was sold only as a pharmaceutical product. Salespeople presented their brands to pediatricians who would then recommend the products to new mothers. In 1992 federal antitrust actions resulted in manufacturers shifting their marketing strategies toward more direct marketing techniques. Now, in addition to pharmaceutical sales, manufacturers rely heavily on direct mail campaigns and TV and print advertising to recruit new customers. In the United States alone, the infant formula industry is a $3 billion-a-year business with approximately another $1 billion in sales outside of the United States. There is some degree of controversy associated with marketing infant formula, however. There are concerns that formula is not as healthy for babies as breast milk and babies may actually become ill if the formula is improperly mixed or administered. Furthermore, once mothers have begun formula feeding on a regular basis it is difficult to return to breastfeeding. Leading authorities, including the World Health Organization (WHO), recommend that babies be completely breastfed for the first six months and that breast milk continue to be used as part of their diet until at least the beginning of the child's second year.
