Hi Naomi!
It seems there has been recent testing of cholesterol in kids due to the
increase
in obesity rates.  I'm just not sure that we really do understand what
normal is or even
if the research that has been done shows bf kids vs bottle fed.  I
figured I'm venturing into unknown territory but thought I'd ask here
anyway...just in case someone might be able to help.
