"Parents of every child considered for the study were advised to breastfeed
their children.  
However, none of the children who ended up taking part was breastfed. "

O what a surprize!!!!!  Could it be that the promise of free formula
influenced the 'decisions' of these mothers?  Or could it be that bf was not
an important component of te study design and so no breastfeeding support
was provided? Could it be that 'advised to breastfeed' means a line on a
consent form that says 'breastmilk is best for your baby but ...' grrrrrr
