Desperate medical monopolists warn not to call breastfeeding ‘natural’ because it might train women to avoid ‘unnatural’ medical interventions like vaccines or GMOs

One of the most natural actions in existence – a mother breastfeeding her child – is facing scrutiny not over the age-old breastfeed or bottle-feed debate, but rather something much more bizarre.
Medical experts are taking up issue with use of the word natural when describing the behavior, saying that the word could make people leery of other health-related topics like GMOs and vaccinations, which already face their fair share of resistance and pressures by those who consider them “unnatural.”
Talk about a stretch. This has to be the most ridiculous over-analyzation of a word yet. Even worse is the fact that these experts are implying that the likes of vaccines and GMOs are natural, and that they actually think that calling breastfeeding “natural” will somehow interfere with the wonderful goodness that is getting a shot of mercury in your arm or eating health-destroying Frankenfoods.
“Promoting breastfeeding as ‘natural’ may be ethically problematic, and, even more troublingly, it may bolster this belief that ‘natural’ approaches are presumptively healthier,” wrote authors Jessica Martucci and Anne Barnhill in the journal Pediatrics. “This may ultimately challenge public health’s aims in other contexts, particularly childhood vaccination.”
