Starting from the 1970s Nestlé employed a marketing strategy for their infant formula, targeting mothers in poor and underdeveloped regions. This strategy included disguising market representatives as health care providers to falsely claim health benefits of their product compared to breast milk and handing out free samples portioned such that the mothers would loose the ability to produce breast milk. These marketing practices being performed in under developed regions resulted in adverse health effects and deaths. Since many mothers could not afford a sufficient supply of formula, they would stretch the portions leading to malnutrition of the child. The fact that the formula has to be mixed with water combined with the poor access to safe drinking water resulted in many children suffering from and often even succumbing to disease such as cholera.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Sartore |first=Melissa |date=2018-12-20 |title=Remembering The Nestlé Baby Formula Scandal That Rocked The 1970s |url=https://www.ranker.com/list/nestle-baby-formula-boycott/melissa-sartore |url-status=live |archive-url=https://archive.is/DRoqB |archive-date=21 Oct 2021 |access-date=21 Oct 2021 |website=ranker}}</ref> | Starting from the 1970s Nestlé employed a marketing strategy for their infant formula, targeting mothers in poor and underdeveloped regions.
