Dear Friends:
One of the concerns about "lacto-free" formula is that lactose is needed for
calcium absorption. Will there be an increase in osteoporosis in the next
20-30 years as a result? Who knows?
And infant feeding might be only one part of such an increase...as children
are less active and spend more time indoors in the US than they did 20 years
ago.
warmly,
Nikki Lee
