I liked this part of the research article:

>infants whose mothers can't nurse,
>such as those who are HIV positive or undergoing chemotherapy

Sure makes it sound like 99.9999% of women CAN nurse.

But I didn't like this part:

>More importantly, this study suggests that G-CSF supplementation of formula
may provide a simple, non-toxic and inexpensive way to reduce the incidence
and/or severity of infections in newborns."

Duh.  Why not just support breastfeeding??!!
