- W584586477 abstract "Editor—I am writing to offer clarification regarding comments made by Yamey in his news article on the baby food industry lobbying the World Health Organization on advice on breast feeding.1 Dr David Nabarro of the WHO commented on the structured process of scientific analysis that the WHO is expected to pursue in drawing up its policy on the recommended age of exclusive breast feeding.I am sure all of your readers would agree with this scientific approach to setting policy. It would, however, be interesting to ask Dr Nabarro why the WHO plans to spend its resources in conducting a literature review on this subject, given the fact that it has already had such a review carried out by globally respected experts in infant nutrition. The WHO published a thorough review of complementary feeding studies including the recommended length of exclusive breast feeding and the appropriate age of introduction of complementary foods in 1998.2 The primary authors of this review conclude that full term infants should be exclusively breast fed until they are about six months of age. Is the WHO undertaking another review in the hopes that the conclusion will support the secretariat's policy of four to six months?The second clarification is in response to James Akre's comment that a resolution by the World Health Assembly in 2001 would be a distraction from the cyclical mandate to go to the assembly every two years. A resolution on the nutrition of infants and young children was tabled at the 2000 assembly in response to the mandated WHO report on this issue. After a long debate the assembly requested the 2001 WHO executive board to establish a drafting group, open to all members of the organization, to prepare a resolution based on the one tabled, including proposed amendments. This resolution would then be recommended for adoption by the 2001 World Health Assembly. Mr Akre's comment is inappropriate, given the decision making process of the assembly.The resolution and amendments tabled at the 2000 assembly deal not only with exclusive breast feeding but also with other important infant health issues, such as the implementation of the international code of marketing of breast milk substitutes. No doubt it is also for this reason that the baby food manufactures are lobbying against the resolution." @default.
