@catchthebaby I heard this before from some formula company research- it made me think either they 1) wanted to replicate formula better or 2) convince mothers that pumped milk was too hard thus needed to buy more formula. As I’ve studied breastmilk for years now I keep hearing direct latch is better. It is hard to promote when society doesn’t support it though. Need better #healthpolicies #maternityleave #breastfeeding #healthdisparities

...the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics has ... received millions in contributions from producers of pop, candy, and processed foods linked to diabetes, heart disease, obesity and other health problems.

"... if the Academy is corrupt then nutritional policy in the US is going to be corrupt."

"If we’re ever going to solve the problems of obesity and diabetes ..., then we’re going to have to tackle the corruption in our health institutions."

… and we work on a systematic review of the empirical evidence on the effects of different #HealthPolicies for #asylum-seekers and #refugees in #Germany.

For now, it seems pretty safe to say that greater inclusion of #migrants in public #healthcare provision is a win-win: better for migrant patients and for #HealthSystems (financially, organizational, etc).

If policymaker still choose exclusions + restrictions of migrants' #HealthRights, they need new justifications.

Anyway, we looked at #HealthPolicies in different states: https://tinyurl.com/4ys7s5cp

We looked at differences over time; in Berlin: https://tinyurl.com/yc7ubbkm

… and differences over time in Germany: https://tinyurl.com/9mh8h27e (in German, sorry!)

We looked at particular healthcare delivery models, e.g. for LGBTIQ+ refugees: https://tinyurl.com/yck3zkmv...
