 Switching to a BPA-free baby bottle is extremely important for protecting infant health.
Improved air flow
These bottles from New Born Free feature other infant health features as well, including a unique air flow design that reportedly reduces the need to burp your baby after feeding from the bottle. The flow also reduces pressure differences inside the bottle, which, we were told, can help reduce ear infections in infants (because air pressure differences can push bacteria right into the ear canal through an infant's eustachian tubes). |
| In this review, the Health Ranger offers a brief review of the Born Free company and its unique BPA-free baby bottle products.
Awareness about the health dangers of bisphenol A (BPA), a chemical in many plastics, has been growing among consumers. BPA is a known estrogen mimicker, and can cause hormone-disrupting effects, toxicity, neurotoxicity, low sperm counts and even cancer. |

These bottles from New Born Free feature other infant health features as well, including a unique air flow design that reportedly reduces the need to burp your baby after feeding from the bottle. The flow also reduces pressure differences inside the bottle, which, we were told, can help reduce ear infections in infants (because air pressure differences can push bacteria right into the ear canal through an infant's eustachian tubes). We weren't able to test this feature, so you'll have to test it yourself to see how well it works. |
| Personally, I'm ecstatic about finding these BPA-free baby bottles. As a long-time supporter of infant health and prenatal nutrition, I know the value of preventing disease at an early age rather than poisoning everybody with chemicals and waiting for diseases to develop later in life.
Bisphenol A is such a dangerous chemical that I have no doubt it will one day be banned from all food and beverage products (California is already trying to enact a ban on the chemical in children's products). But why wait for the legislators to get around to it? |
| Infant health reminders
While you're at it, remember these important points about infant health:
Breastfeeding is the single most important thing you can do to enhance your baby's nutritional health.
Don't slather your children with personal care products made with industrial chemicals. Most sunscreen products, for example, are loaded with toxic chemicals that actually cause liver cancer and skin disorders. (A little sun is healthy for babies anyway. Vitamin D is essential for healthy bones and normal cell division. |
| The first few months of a baby's life are crucial for imprinting taste expectations, so use that time to expose them to fruits, vegetables and other natural food sources rather than refined, processed ingredients.

 She was the mother who dared to rescue her baby from the scalpels of overzealous surgeons, and her incarceration reveals the blatant truth about the motives of hospitals, doctors and the entire system of modern medicine: Comply with our medicine, or we will punish you.
As is being pointed out by many critics of Carlsen's treatment, the idea of whether her baby's condition demanded urgent medical care is not relevant. It is the right and responsibility of every parent to choose what kind of treatment their child should receive, even if certain health experts disagree with such a decision. |

 As a result, human children are the least healthy youngsters of any species on the planet. baby dolphins are healthier than baby humans, for example, and they are born with healthier nervous systems, fewer toxins and a lot more common sense.
Hey, let's go suck on a cow
Speaking of common sense, nearly all mammals have the common sense to feed their children their own mother's milk. A kitten, for example, will drink cat's milk from its mother. A puppy will drink dog's milk from its mother. A baby horse will drink horse's milk from its mother. But humans? We're sorta stupid. |

 The next day I went out and the sister goat (who was a first-time mother) was kidding—again one baby was dead and the other one could not even cry. I lifted up the baby and could barely feel the heart beating. This time I had nobody to turn to, so I had to apply Matrix Energetics myself. Again, the baby came back and I took her with me to work. We call this goat Mouse because she is so small, and she is alive and doing well, with no disease. For four more days, I had births every day. Once I took care of Mouse, there were no further complications. |

| Terrorized by the incident, charged with second-degree kidnapping of her own child, and threatened with bail of $500,000, Tina Carlsen was jailed for several days, during which she was unable to provide lifesaving mother's milk to her baby (which is crucial for a child's brain and immune system). She has still not been allowed physical contact with her infant son.
Carlsen's child was taken from her by Child Protective Services after she refused to drug her infant with doctor-prescribed medications in preparation for surgery to implant kidney dialysis devices. |
| She was also reportedly threatened by a nephrologist (a kidney specialist), who, according to relatives, demanded, "You do what I tell you to do, or I will have the police at the door, taking that baby from you."
And that's exactly what happened: The doctor called Child Protective Services, and CPS won a court battle to take custody of the child based entirely on Carlsen's refusal to submit the child to conventional surgery. |
| As is being pointed out by many critics of Carlsen's treatment, the idea of whether her baby's condition demanded urgent medical care is not relevant. It is the right and responsibility of every parent to choose what kind of treatment their child should receive, even if certain health experts disagree with such a decision. The State is not the parent, and any State that would use the threat of violence to enforce the profiteering medical treatments of powerful corporations is an unjust State. |

 Kay had been experiencing a rapid pulse, heart palpitations, anxiety, insomnia, and night sweats since a week or so after her baby girl was born. She was breastfeeding her new baby and was not interested in using the treatments offered to her by the endocrinologist. She came to Bove to consult about her options for managing her condition with natural medicines.
Kay had a normal pregnancy and delivery. During her pregnancy, she reported chronic problems with vaginal yeast. Since she had started breastfeeding, she had experienced yeast in her nipples and thrush in her baby's mouth. |

| The robot had been programmed to move randomly; however, when the baby chicks looked at it, the randomness was disrupted. When observed by the baby chicks, the robot's patterns of movement deviated toward the chicks to a statistically significant degree. Apparently, as I suspected in my pre-adolescent teens, chicks may rule the universe.
Following his ideas wherever they might point, Sheldrake boldly portrays the power of social and spiritual ritual as a way to initiate, build, and sustain a collective morphic field. |

 After birth, when the baby begins to breathe on its own, the Lung Driver field is activated.
1 As the baby develops after birth, other Energetic Driver fields—such as those for the stomach, muscles, and skin—are activated.
Figure 12.1. The sixteen Energetic Driver fields arise from organs more or less following fetal development, with some not becoming fully functional until after birth. one first and following the numbered sequence. For example, suppose that your NES scan showed Energetic Driver 13 as the most distorted Driver, followed by Energetic Drivers 3, 1, and 14. |

 Gestational diabetes occurs during pregnancy and usually resolves with the birth of the baby.
While certain ethnic groups are at increased risk for diabetes, the following factors can raise anyone's risk: family history, being obese or significantly overweight, sedentary lifestyle, being over 45, having a history of gestational diabetes, or giving birth to a 9-pound or bigger baby. |

 Infantile colic is common, occurring in approximately one in ten babies, starting between the first and sixth week of life and usually continuing until the child is three or four months old. The baby usually cries, turns red in the face, may pass gas, clench his fists, and draw up his legs. If the baby runs a fever or becomes ill with bouts of colic, a doctor should be consulted. Overstimulation, rapid environmental changes, and parents' anxiety will often make the child even more irritable.
Recommendations include creating a calm, quiet environment during and following mealtimes. |

 In 1892, Freud published a case in the medical literature on his use of hypnotic suggestion to treat a woman who had a newborn infant and had developed simultaneously an aversion to all food and to nursing her baby:
I made use of suggestion to contradict all her fears and the feelings on which those fears were based: "Have no fear! You will make an excellent nurse and the baby will thrive. Your stomach is perfectly quiet, your appetite is excellent, you are looking forward to your next meal," and suchlike. |

 When less blood flows to your uterus, it can mean problems for your baby, such as poor growth, decreased amniotic fluid, and placental abruption ?when the placenta separates from the uterine wall before delivery. In addition, your baby may suffer the effects of prematurity if you need to deliver early to protect your health.

 I'll never forget a forty-three-year-old patient, Doris Ellings, who arrived in my office with the surprising and happy news that she was pregnant. The baby changed her whole attitude about herself and her illness. Although Mrs. Ellings wasn't well, her symptoms diminished in intensity. Granted, nothing could be more distracting than a baby, and not every patient with chronic pain or fatigue will find herself prepared for pregnancy and childbirth. |

 The other scientist says to her, 'Baby steps, Ellie. baby steps.
We were about to make scientific history with an experimental design that had never been tried before. We had to start from the ground floor. First we had to establish that the thoughts of a batch of disparate people from around the globe could have an effect—any effect. Only after we'd achieved that could we move on to more ambitious targets.
I had to smile at the idea that we were going to start with a leaf. When the cover design of the U.S. |

 Jaume's wife, Julie, who decided to join us at the last minute, took along their baby daughter, Clara. As we were entering the museum, Clara protested loudly, so the ladies went in, while Jaume and I were left to babysit. Soon we were deep in the discussion of our physics problem. By the time our wives returned, the museum was already closing. So I did not get to see the so-much-talked-about Casa Dali.
We spent the rest of the afternoon wandering about the village. |

 Need some food for your baby? Buy Similac (or any other baby formula powder). It's made with 42.6% corn syrup solids and 10.1% sugar, making it over 50% refined sugars! Marketed with a cuddly teddy bear on the front label and sporting the claim, "Balanced nutrition for older babies," Similac and other infant formula products are little more than sugar water for babies. Doctors and pediatricians remain silent. There is no outcry. No national scandal. No action by the FDA to protect babies. Some doctors even recommend this stuff! (And stupid parents keep buying it! |

| Furthermore, this company goes on to state, "If you make the choice not to breastfeed, you can still give your baby all the nutrients he/she needs with commercial formula."79
Of course, the manufacturer would stand to profit from this advice as they subtly suggest "Nursery* can be ideal for mixing with baby formulas. To support their position, the company misconstrues "recommendations" from the American Academy of Pediatrics and the FDA that chemically synthesized formula is just as good as real breastmilk. |

 Then, to me, "The baby won't lie down. He never does anything I tell him to."
"Darling," I told her, "Let's tell him slowly." I got a soft cloth out of a closet and laid it out on the counter, while he watched. Then I said to Alexander, "Lie down, baby." I watched the meaning of my words gradually sink in, by observing the slow spread of comprehension across his face. When he eventually grasped the meaning of my communication, he lay down on the cloth, ready for a diaper change. Matching our pace to that of another, especially when we're living fast-paced lives, can take some effort. |

| Don't worry, your obstetrician will schedule a C-section childbirth appointment and deliver the baby on YOUR schedule instead of Mother Nature's. It's more convenient for him, too, because then he can still make his golf game. Don't worry about the baby: There's no benefit to vaginal childbirth anyway, right? What better way to welcome your child to the world than with a scalpel! Result: Millions of women subject their children to non-natural child birthing that results in an increased risk of lung disease afflictions as well as psychological birthing trauma lasting a lifetime. |
