There are several studies that indicate that not bering breasfed or being
exposed tonon-humanmilk statistically increases the risk of developping
diabetes. (sorry, don't have them or references at hand, now)
So to me it is highly unlogical to feed a potentially at risk fordiabetes
child with non-human milk.

Warmly greeting,
