almost all of the handful of articles that I found were single case
reports. There also is a deficiency of zinc available to moms via diet in
some areas of the world. One of the articles had the good sense to say
consider this possibilty in a BF infant, seems atopic derm is usually first
suspect, when baby really needs some zinc.
One of the neatest articles I found lately was by Jelliffe. He said if
mom's milk is deficient (for whatever reason) feed the MOM, not the baby!
