title: [Breast feeding in a metropolitan area: (II). Design for a promotion program].
abstract: Because of the importance of breast-feeding in the health of both the mother and child, and taking into consideration its poor situation at the present time, it seems fully justified to start a program to promote breast-feeding. This program basically will consist of training health professionals and in the improvement of both the mother's and hospital's practices. It is necessary to motivate health authorities and to curb the excess in formula promotion. Mass-media should be employed for the promotion of breast-feeding and a system should be implemented to obtain a proper record of the duration of breast-feeding.
