The Infant Nutrition Council is committed to supporting both breastfeeding and infant formula.

The infant formula industry has spent many years studying breast milk and knows the value of good nutrition for infants and the unique and unsurpassed benefits of breast milk.

There is no question that breast milk provides the best possible nutrition for infants. However, when a baby is not being breastfed the only suitable and safe alternative is a scientifically developed infant formula.

Ensuring that the mothers of formula fed babies receive adequate and appropriate information while at the same time protecting the critical role of breastfeeding, is an important task for infant formula companies, healthcare professionals and government.

The Infant Nutrition Council is a key industry stakeholder in improving infant nutrition.  It works with government and other stakeholders to support the public health goals for the protection and promotion of breastfeeding and, when needed, infant formula as the only suitable alternative.
