Yahoo news article, based on a study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.

I thought it was interesting, the way they stated a few things:
1.  The clearly noted it was "milk-based" baby formula.  is this too,  a study created by the soy formula manufacturers?

2. They also pointed out that "Fortified cow's milk is an important source of calcium and vitamin D -- key to preventing rickets and osteoporosis"  so is this another jab at the "deficiency of vitamin D in breastmilk???"

So although the study findings obviously support breastfeeding, more than 50% of the article is actually spent explaining away why cows-milk formula is inferior to breastfeeding.
