I have recently learned of a mother in Raleigh, NC, who was asked by her MD
to stop breastfeeding, and participate in a study regarding Soy Formula. The
mother was told that she would receive free formula for the duration of the
study, and that it was "high quality formula." No mention made of hazards of
formula.  Mother quit bf, and now, at five months, is purchasing her formula.

Is this ETHICAL? YES I AM SHOUTING.  Anyone in Raleigh NC USA know about this?
