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).
