This month's  Community Practitioner journal (for UK community nurses esp.
health visitors) has a double page spread advertsing Enfamil Ar. The text
says that reflux affects 50 per cent of infants (giving a ref from J Am
Coll Nutr - I haven't heard of this journal, but that doesn't mean it's not
perfectly reputable, of course).

I already posted that reflux is hardly ever talked about in the UK,
something MJ clearly wish to challenge...now if mothers tell me their HVs
and docs have diagnosed 'reflux' I shall know their wish is getting across.

In the same issue of CP, there are two other MJ ads for other products,
making them the heaviest advertiser in this journal.
