With the growing number of HIV/AIDS infected women, it is not safe for many of them to nurse their infants. Many of today's infant formulas contain substances such as whey and soy, which can induce allergies in some infants. Another problem is the exploitation of infants by companies such as nestle, who sell infant formula to people, primarily in low income nations. This infant formula is often mixed with contaminated water, laden with disease and parasites. As a result, many infants become sick and/or die. A possible alternative is fig juice. Fresh-squeezed organic fig juice is similar in composition to breast milk and can double the size of an infant in six months.
