Sorry, I must disagree about this ad.  While the first message is wonderful,
I think it is considerably undermined by the second one, which to me implies
that the lost antibody protection can easily be made up with an artificial
substitute.  I'm just wondering how long it will be before we see the
formula manufacturers saying that their products help babies "build their
own antibodies and develop a strong immune system."  (Or are they already
doing that, Heaven help us?!)
