  I was interested in it until it said my baby is ingesting chemicals by drinking breast milk.

  You don't think she is? You don't think we have potentially harmful chemicals in our bodies?

  I think there are potentially harmful chemicals everywhere! But what exactly do they (and you) propose we feed our babies if formula is supposedly inferior to breastmilk and breastmilk is chemical-laden?!?

  **I do not think FF is inferior, just want to put that out there**

  I had the same thought really. It seems like the only solution is to reduce our chemical exposure (especially in our own homes) as much as we can. This can be done other than by just buying Seventh Generation products! (We clean a lot with a homemade vinegar solution.) It does make me wish we lived in simpler times before they kept inventing more and more new compounds and using synthetic additives.

  I think you are correct and that is what the video is trying to show - there are harmful chemicals everywhere.  And with small changes it can start to make a big difference.  It wasn't saying don't breastfeed.  It was saying these chemicals are everywhere - even in breastmilk, so what can we do to make our world around us safer for all of us.
