Iron Depletion Linked to Daytime Bottle-Feeding in the Second and Third
Years of Life
In the second and third years of life, there is an almost 2-fold
association between iron depletion and daytime bottle-feeding compared
with cup feeding," the authors write. "The child's age may be a
modifier, and milk volume consumed may be a mediator, of this
association. Duration of bottle use is a potentially modifiable
practice."
