Formula feeding leads to MORE INFANT DEATHS than most parents will ever realize.

Breastfeeding cuts SIDS risk in HALF and protects babies from the top causes of early death.

So, why are hospitals still pushing formula?

Here’s what every new parent deserves to know.

🧵 THREAD Image
This thread is based on the powerful research of medical expert @MidwesternDoc.

For the full breakdown, sources, and all the eye-opening insights, read the full 25,000-word article below.

@MidwesternDoc Breastmilk isn’t just food.

It’s bioengineered medicine that is completely customized by the mother’s body to protect, grow, and heal her baby.

It is absolutely incredible and shouldn’t ever be replaced in lieu of formula unless there is a necessary reason to do so. Image
@MidwesternDoc Breastmilk contains everything a baby needs to grow and thrive, including:

• Targeted antibodies
• Immune-repairing cytokines
• microRNA that programs gene expression
• Natural anti-cancer agents
• Digestive enzymes
• Endocannabinoids for bonding and brain development Image
@MidwesternDoc Breastmilk also corrects one of the biggest failures of modern medicine.

It naturally balances the immune system, reversing the harmful Th2 shift caused by many vaccines—something no pharmaceutical can do.

Nature knew what it was doing. And it still knows what it’s doing. Image
@MidwesternDoc The most powerful part of breastmilk is colostrum.

This is the golden first milk produced just after birth.

It is absolutely packed with healing compounds that jumpstart the gut, immune system, and brain.

Even cow colostrum has healed injuries and chronic illness. Image
Unlike breastmilk, formula doesn’t adjust based on what a baby uniquely needs.

Formula is missing a lot, including:

• Oligosaccharides that build the baby’s gut
• Essential fats & cholesterol for the brain and eyes
• Enzymes to absorb fat
• Bioavailable nutrients like iron and iodine

Even if formulas claim to include these things, none of these work the same in formula.Image
@MidwesternDoc The composition of formula will never compare to that of breastmilk.

But not only is it not intelligently designed, it is actually downright harmful to developing babies. Image
The truth about formula will shock and sicken you.

Formula is pushed on moms-to-be and new moms as part of a massive marketing campaign. It is a predatory industry.

These companies don’t care about you and your newborn baby. They only care about profits.

They donate formula and marketing tools to pediatricians' offices so that when a baby is weighed and comes in “underweight”, mom will be given a sample of formula and told she needs to supplement or switch… for the baby’s health.

The marketing and the pressure is not unlike that of childhood vaccines.

Moms are made to feel inadequate and unintelligent. They’re not allowed to ask questions. How dare they risk their newborn baby’s wellbeing!Image
The benefits of breastmilk are endless and can have a long-lasting influence.

Breastfed babies are:

• Half as likely to get diabetes or asthma
• Less likely to get infections, GI problems, or cancer
• Less likely to die of SIDS
• More likely to have higher IQs and better memory
• Significantly less likely to develop autism or ADHDImage
@MidwesternDoc And many of these “prevented” conditions are the same ones that explode after vaccination.

Breastmilk’s protection may come from how it balances immunity and shields the gut and brain.

Formula-fed babies don’t get that buffer. Image
@MidwesternDoc Did you know that mothers benefit from breastfeeding, too?

@MidwesternDoc breaks it down in this 25,000-word deep dive—packed with insights you won’t find anywhere else.
midwesterndoctor.com/p/why-is-what-…
The act of breastfeeding improves bonding between mother and baby and improves mom’s mood and postpartum recovery.

It also slashes long-term disease!

Mothers who breastfeed have a 4–91% lower cancer risk, lower risk of hypertension, and they experience less postpartum depression.

Nature really thought of everything.

This system was designed to perfection. So why are we messing with it?Image
Unfortunately, hospital birth interventions often sabotage breastfeeding.

C-sections, delayed or little to no skin-to-skin time, the use of pacifiers and swaddling, and drugs given to mothers during birth all interfere with early latching—and that precious colostrum.

And then… they hand you a bottle.

And what does a new mom want to do? Everything she’s told to take care of her new, fragile baby. So she takes the bottle, sometimes reluctantly.Image
New moms in a hospital setting are so vulnerable to manipulation by doctors and nurses.

Even moms who think they have a plan can be pushed and pressured into things they never wanted to do.

If you are or know a mother-to-be planning a hospital birth, consider bringing a birth plan with you and, better yet, hiring a doula who can advocate for you so you can focus fully on your baby.Image
The first 30 minutes after birth is when babies are naturally primed to latch, and when mothers release oxytocin—helping expel the placenta, reduce bleeding, and kickstart milk production.

Interrupt this, and the system breaks.

Unfortunately, those 30 minutes can fly by in a hospital, where staff want to weigh the baby, wash the baby, run newborn screenings, or whisk the baby away if they find anything even slightly concerning.

Unless there is a significant emergency that needs immediate care, the very best place for a baby right after birth is skin-to-skin on mom’s chest.Image
@MidwesternDoc “Standard practices" like swaddling, formula, and pacifiers can and often do derail breastfeeding entirely.

Swaddling alone has been linked to:
• Higher SIDS risk
• Hip problems
• Overheating
• Early breastfeeding failure

Sometimes “safe” isn’t safe at all. Image
@MidwesternDoc Even the most motivated, well-intentioned moms can struggle to breastfeed, due to issues like tongue tie, mastitis, sore nipples, and more.

@MidwesternDoc While breastfeeding is perfectly designed, not all breastmilk is equal. Especially in today’s world.

If the mother eats poorly (especially junk fats or processed vegan diets) her milk suffers.

Low nutrients = cranky baby = frustrated mom = formula.

It’s a vicious cycle. Image
@MidwesternDoc Maternal nutrition matters.

The best breastmilk comes from a diet rich in healthy fats (especially fat-soluble vitamins A, D, K₂), B12, and iodine (levels are 20–50x higher in breastmilk than in blood).

When those are missing? So is milk. Image
One of the most overlooked facts is that toxins and allergens pass through breastmilk.

While a mother’s body works hard to create the most nutritious and safest breastmilk possible, some environmental toxins still make their way in.

That includes things like pesticides, MSG, flame retardants, and even vaccine mRNA and spike protein.

Some babies very clearly react to the foods that mom eats—especially dairy, soy, or chocolate.Image
@MidwesternDoc “Colic” is often dismissed as random crying. But what if it’s not?

What if colic is caused by gut pain from allergens? Or poor milk quality? Or even vaccine-induced encephalitis?

Too often pediatricians brush it off and just say, “they’ll grow out of it.” Image
Every once in a while, a new baby shines.

You’ve seen them. Eyes bright, mind alert, completely full of joy.

So what’s the difference?

More often than not, the parents of these babies avoided giving formula, avoided hospital sabotage, skipped shots during pregnancy and after birth, and gave their baby the best food nature offers.

You can see the difference. We all have.

And that difference extends far past infancy.Image

REPORT: The NIH is now funding research into ivermectin as a cancer treatment.

Yes, the same drug they mocked as “horse paste” is now being seriously studied—for its ability to kill cancer cells.

On February 10, the NIH confirmed it’s funding preclinical trials on ivermectin’s anti-cancer properties. Dr. Anthony Letai, head of the National Cancer Institute, said there’s “enough interest” and “enough reports” to take it seriously. Studies are already underway, with results expected in just a few months.

This follows 2024 and 2025 reviews by U.S. scientists showing signs that ivermectin can inhibit tumors. The NIH is now backing that research, pointing to ivermectin’s Nobel Prize-winning legacy and its decades of safe, FDA-approved use in humans.

But instead of welcoming a promising, low-cost treatment, the media doubled down. Outlets like MedPage Today rushed to dismiss the story as “right-wing hype,” ignoring the science and smearing anyone who dared to ask questions.

Why attack a drug that could save lives—unless the real threat is to their bottom line?

If ivermectin works, it won’t just save lives. It’ll shatter the system built to suppress it.

Once a single identity becomes the gateway to your money, your work, and your ability to participate in everyday life, compliance is no longer a choice.

That’s why Genesis Gold Group created the free Digital ID Resistance Wealth Guide.

It breaks down the real risks of digital ID and explains how physical gold and silver allow you to operate outside the system.

Digital dollars leave you exposed. Gold and silver can’t be frozen, tracked, or turned off.

In other news, Republicans and Democrats are backing a bill that opens the door to mandatory Digital ID for every American.

It’s called the “Kids Off Social Media Act.” But it doesn’t just target kids. It targets you.

The bill bans anyone under 13 from having a social media account. Sounds reasonable—until you realize enforcement means scanning your face, checking your ID, or tracking your device… just to prove you’re old enough to speak online.

The bill doesn’t have to say “Digital ID.” The logic demands it. And once those systems are in place, they won’t stop at children. They’ll be used to control what you can say, see, and share.

Multiple states have already declared these laws unconstitutional. So why are Republicans still pushing them?

This is exactly how it started in the UK. Today, people are getting arrested for memes.

Watch @zeeemedia's report before they normalize this—and your freedom to speak anonymously disappears forever.

Polio didn’t disappear the way you think it did.

Google why we no longer see crippled kids from polio. You’ll get one answer: vaccines.

But Dr. Suzanne Humphries says that’s not what the facts show—and when you dig into the history, the real story is jaw-dropping.

First off, polio never actually disappeared. “Polio is still here. Polio is still alive and well,” Humphries says.

What changed? The definition. Once the vaccine was introduced, the medical establishment redefined what counted as “polio.”

Humphries explains: “Polio is called different things today. Whereas back in the 1940s, 1950s, the criteria for diagnosing polio were completely different to the year that the vaccine was introduced. The playing field, the goalposts—everything was changed… they were able to show a complete cascading drop of paralytic polio simply because of the way they changed the definitions of what polio is and what could cause it.”

Suddenly, cases that would’ve been labeled polio were now called Guillain-Barré syndrome, coxsackievirus, echovirus—or simply chalked up to heavy metal poisoning. “They didn’t have virus, or they had coxsackievirus or echovirus, or they were lead poisoned or mercury poisoned, which was—the mercury and lead were the leading treatments of the day,” she said.

But it gets worse.

The rise of polio, she says, directly mirrored the use of toxic pesticides like DDT. “The tonnage of production of DDT absolutely mirrored the diagnosis for polio.” And even today, “the countries that still make DDT today is where we’re still seeing this paralytic polio situation happen.”

So what about the virus?

Polio virus, according to Humphries, is what’s known as a commensal—a normal virus that lives in most people without causing problems. In fact, “95 to 99% of all polio is asymptomatic.” She described a study of the Javante Indians where “98 to 99% of every person they tested… had evidence of immunity to all three strains of polio.”

When asked where all the paralyzed children were, she recalled: “They were like, ‘We don’t have any of that problem.’”

Humphries also points to a 1916 Rockefeller lab in Manhattan that, in her words, had “the specific stated goal… to try to create the most pathological, neuropathological strain of polio possible.” By injecting monkey brains and human spinal serum into monkeys, “there was a big problem with that, which was released into the public by accident. And the world experienced the worst polio epidemic on record. 25% mortality.”

Bottom line? According to Dr. Humphries, polio didn’t disappear because of vaccines. It disappeared behind a curtain of redefinitions, misdiagnoses, manmade disasters—and a whole lot of propaganda.

And if they went that far to deceive you about the polio vaccine, what else are they lying about? 🧵
Did you know the original smallpox vaccine caused serious injuries—and was often contaminated with pus, bacteria, and fungus?

We’ve been told it saved humanity from a deadly disease, but what if that’s a lie?

Dr. Suzanne Humphries explained to Joe Rogan what happened to children who received the vaccine. They developed large ulcers, high fevers, and widespread infections. With no antibiotics available, treatments were limited to mercury, arsenic, bloodletting, or isolation in dark rooms.

These severe reactions weren’t considered rare. In fact, they were referred to as “a good take.”

What made matters worse was how the vaccine was produced. According to Dr. Humphries, it was made by infecting animals and harvesting the resulting pus.

“They would take pus from other animals, scratch it into the belly of a cow, then take the pus off of the big pimples that would form,” she said. The material—called “pure lymph”—often came from cadavers, horses, or ulcerating cow udders, mixed with glycerin, and scratched into the surface of the skin.

Even decades later, contamination was an issue. “There was more bacteria and fungus in the smallpox vaccines than there was smallpox virus.” One widely used version, Dryvax, was eventually considered so problematic that health authorities ordered all remaining specimens destroyed around 2009.

Living conditions at the time were “a disaster.” Streets were filled with human and animal waste, there was no running water, and sanitation was nearly nonexistent. Poor hygiene and co-infections absolutely made smallpox far more deadly than it might have been otherwise.

Despite all this, the smallpox vaccine is still presented as a flawless triumph.

But for those who experienced the injuries firsthand, and for those who study its full history, the story isn’t so simple.

“This is the one vaccine that eliminated, eradicated a disease,” Dr. Humphries said sarcastically. “Can you believe that fairytale?”
We’ve all been taught that the smallpox vaccine was one of medicine’s greatest triumphs.

But when you read the actual clinical observations recorded by doctors who lived through its rollout, a far more unsettling picture emerges.

It’s not propaganda, and it’s not hindsight. It’s primary-source medicine.

And much of it was quietly buried.Image

There’s a reason doctors love pushing vaccines. The more they inject, the more money they make.

The foot traffic alone brings in big money, but there’s another perverse incentive, and once you hear it, it will make you angry.

RFK Jr. explains: “Pediatricians who vaccinate 80-85% of the kids in their office, get these giant bonuses... And that's why they throw you out of the office if you fight back…You'll lose them their bonuses.”

Sadly, these perverse financial incentives aren’t limited to vaccines but across many areas of medicine.

Dig a little deeper, and another disturbing pattern appears. Once you see it, you’re left gobsmacked by just how far the corruption runs beyond money. 🧵
The video below is haunting—not because the doctor in it is malicious, but because she genuinely believes she’s helping.

She’s an MD with a Master’s in Public Health, a Fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics, and a former leader at Georgetown. Her language is warm. Her intentions seem pure.

Yet this interview perfectly captures how public health has lost its way.

After conquering most deadly contagious diseases, it turned toward chronic illness—and failed.

Instead of questioning why children are getting sicker, it doubled down on vaccinating more, earlier, and without dissent, often dismissing safety concerns as heresy.

Watch this video. Then ask yourself what matters more in modern medicine: children’s outcomes—or institutional certainty.

A lawsuit filed several years ago exposed something far more disturbing than a single act of medical misconduct.

It revealed how, during COVID, core medical ethics quietly collapsed—how consent became optional, coercion was reframed as care, and vulnerable people were treated as obstacles rather than patients.

This isn’t about ideology. It’s about what happens when fear, authority, and institutional pressure override conscience.Image

The real cause of heart disease has been buried for decades in favor of the lie about cholesterol.

40 million Americans take statins to lower their cholesterol, thinking it’s the best way to protect their hearts.

But what doctors never tell them is that statins interfere with the body’s natural repair system, weakening the very cells that rely on cholesterol to function.

In trying to prevent disease, they’re paradoxically fueling it.

This report exposes what really happens to the body when you take a statin every day.
This information comes from the work of medical researcher @MidwesternDoc.

For years, doctors have been taught that high cholesterol causes heart attacks. They’ve passed the warning along to their patients, and most of us have believed them.

But that idea came from one man: Ancel Keys.

Keys cherry-picked data to make fat and cholesterol look deadly while ignoring the real culprit: sugar.

John Yudkin tried to warn the world that sugar—not fat—was driving heart disease. But no one listened. He was ridiculed, silenced, and erased from history.Image

This drug reversed a condition that usually ends with a ventilator and a body bag.

Three patients were on the brink of death from total lung failure.

Then they were given intravenous DMSO—and something incredible happened.

Days later, they were breathing freely. One even had completely normal lungs within just a week.

You’ve probably never heard of DMSO—and that’s by design.

Once you see what it can do, you’ll understand why it had to be buried.

DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide) use exploded in the 1960s as a medical breakthrough.

There were thousands of studies.
There was massive public demand.
And there were miracle recoveries.

But the FDA dropped the hammer—and the pharmaceutical industry buried DMSO.

Why?

Because it worked.Image

In 2015, Scott Adams made a “crazy” prediction that most people thought was impossible.

He said Trump had a 98% chance of becoming president, and he made that call on a single observation.

The winning attribute that made Scott confident in Trump’s victory was his one-of-a-kind persuasion skills.

While political betting markets dismissed Trump’s chances, Adams argued—using his background in persuasion and hypnosis—that Trump was the most psychologically effective candidate in the race and therefore favored to win.

He built a massive following by showing how persuasion, not policy, drives political outcomes.

That insight proved correct. But it also revealed something darker. 🧵
After Trump’s victory, Adams pivoted to punditry—and during COVID, even he struggled to see the truth.

Scott strongly endorsed the vaccines, vaccinated himself, and publicly belittled followers who refused. Many later derisively called him “Clot Adams.”

In January 2023, Adams admitted—on video—that he’d been wrong and that the anti-vaxxers were correct. But he framed it as luck: the right people just happened to distrust the government, while “all the data” supposedly pointed intelligent analysts toward vaccination.

That framing matters. It reveals how even skilled observers of persuasion can mistake marketing consensus for truth—and how the same system that manufactures medical certainty also hides the limits of medicine, until reality forces a reckoning.
Last May, Scott told the world something most people never say out loud until it’s unavoidable: he had terminal, metastatic prostate cancer.

He openly stated he planned to use California’s medically assisted dying to reduce suffering.

He also shut down speculation—saying he had already tried fenbendazole and ivermectin and had no interest in continuing them.

The reaction was explosive.

People weren’t just debating treatment choices—they were watching, in real time, what a protracted, modern death actually looks like.

For many, it shattered comforting abstractions about both cancer and mortality.
