Hi,
I've been gathering research on this issue
and you can find it on my web site at
http://www.storytellerdesign.com/frogrivers.html
and go to Hormone/Endocrine Disruptors.
Many people are looking at this issue. No answers right now, just many questions and concerns
I actually came to all this research by looking for info on soy and it's affect on menopause, and that took me to soy and infant formula. If soy has hormonal affects on menopausal women, what effect does soy have on infants, especially when it's the only food they get for several months?
That's just one of the questions.

Has anyone done research on this issue? If not, I would think it would be
a good area. The paper this a.m. had an article on this topic. Some
theories/issues: estrogen-like chemicals (soy ABM), role of leptin
(found in BrM), overweight (BF babies less likely to be later), more
African-Americans mature early (lower rates of BF, more likely to have
soy ABM b/c of lactose intolerance).
