Nestlé macht Babys und Kleinkinder in einkommensärmeren Ländern zuckersüchtig

Die beiden führenden Babynahrungsmarken, die Nestlé in Ländern mit tiefem oder mittlerem Einkommen als gesund und wichtig für die Entwicklung von Kindern bewirbt, enthalten hohe Mengen an zugesetztem Zucker. In der Schweiz, wo Nestlé seinen Hauptsitz hat, verkauft der Konzern solche Produkte ohne Zuckerzusatz. Dies zeigt eine gemeinsame Recherche von Public Eye und dem International Baby Food Action Network, welche die Heuchelei und das irreführende Marketing des Schweizer Nahrungsmittelriesen aufzeigt.

The citizens' campaigns to constrain the we-must-be-allowed-to-damage-babies'-health-if-it-makes-a-buck industry have been ongoing for *more than 50 years*.

The initial #NestleBoycott was in 1977. #IBFAN was created in 1979.
