The protocol  for the study is  frightening. 
It involves the randomized weaning of  breastfed infants susceptible  to 
diabetes to a either a cow's milk  based formula or Nutramigen, a hydrolyzed  
formula 
which is  hypoallergenic, not non-allergenic. This formula still contains   
cow's milk protein. Parents will not be informed as to which formula  their  
infant 
is being weaned to, the one with low potential for  triggering diabetes or  
the one with high  potential.

Dear Friends:
    How in the world could such a study pass an ethics review  committee?
    warmly,
