Social Media Intelligence Enriches Corporations Who Exploit the Defenseless by Sharon Leontine Wallenberg

The UN World Health Organization purchased services from social media intelligence to “listen” to billions of daily exchanges and conversations among social media users on digital platforms, websites, forums, Facebook, and monitor for key words, phrases, and gather, organize, analyze it on immoral and illegal marketing practices of multi-national formula milk manufacturers exploiting parents, mothers, infants.   

Formula milk companies pay social media platforms and influencers for access to pregnant women and mothers who are targeted with personalized social media content not recognizable as advertising.  Content is posted approximately 90 times a day, reaching 229 million users - three times those reached by informational posts with evidence that breastfeeding improves health for Infants and Mothers,

If current formula milk marketing strategies continue, that proportion could fall still further, while boosting companies’ profits of more than $55 billion per year globally.

“The promotion of commercial milk formulas should have been terminated decades ago,” said Dr Francesco Branca, Director of WHO Nutrition and Food Safety Department. “The fact that formula milk companies are now employing even more powerful and insidious marketing techniques to drive up their sales is inexcusable…”

Dairy in Chocolate directly related to Deadly Infection Outbreak by Sharon Leontine Wallenberg


The United Kingdom recently notified WHO of monophasic Salmonella Typhimurium infections linked to dairy in chocolate and distributed to 113+ countries. 

The United Kingdom National Focal Point reported a cluster of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium.  Evidence linked the outbreak to chocolate products.  Monophasic S. Typhimurium was identified in buttermilk tanks used to make chocolate.  Products included all Kinder products including Kinder Surprise, Kinder Mini Eggs, Kinder Surprise Maxi 100g and Kinder Schoko-Bons.

According to the United Kingdom Health Security Agency, the outbreak strain is resistant to six types of antibiotics: penicillins, aminoglycosides (streptomycin, spectinomycin, kanamycin, and gentamycin), phenicols, sulfonamides, trimethoprim, tetracyclines.

Salmonellosis causes fever, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea (sometimes bloody).  Symptoms occur 6–72 hours after eating food or water contaminated with Salmonella; illness lasts 2–7 days.  In children and elderly, the associated dehydration can become severe and life-threatening.

Salmonella bacteria are found in animals and their secretions, eaten as food including poultry, eggs, cattle, dairy, and pigs, and can be life threatening in some cases.  Don’t eat animals or their secretions!

Overweight and Obesity are Leading Causes of Death and Disability By Sharon L.Wallenberg


Overweight and obesity are leading causes of death and disability according to the World Health Organization European Regional Obesity Report, published by the WHO European Office for the Prevention and Control of Non-communicable Diseases May 3, 2022.  The report contains country-specific data drawn from the 53 WHO European Member States and reveals:  

Overweight and obesity are among the leading causes of death and disability in the WHO European Region, increasing the risk for many non-communicable diseases, including cancer, cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes mellitus and chronic respiratory diseases. 

Two thirds of adults in the WHO European Region, and one in three school-aged children, are living with overweight or obesity. 

The meat and dairy based diet is the source of fat and cholesterol which causes overweight and obesity.  The low fat, high fiber plant-based diet is the antidote to this health dilemma. 

Eliminating all milk products: including cheese, yogurt, ice cream and butter, as well as meat, poultry, fish and seafood, and substituting delicious plant-based alternatives will save human lives, reduce pollution and decrease global warming.   The plant-based diet is both delicious and healthful.
