<< " Premature babies benefit from breast milk"

 Infants fed human milk fortified-in-hospital developed comparably to those

 Oct. 29, 2003 -- Premature infants fed breast milk made developmental gains
 equal to or greater than those fed formula specially designed for
 low-birth-weight infants, an international study finds...'Definitely,
appropriately fortified breast milk is the feeding of choice for these premature,
low-birth-weight babies, >>

Pardon my scoffing, but they are 'willing' to admit that babies receiving
breastmilk fortified with formula-type stuff do just as well ( or better) as
those who receive "special formula"? ... This wasn't even about VeryLBW babies,
either...
