In reading Dr. Wight's post about new AAP recommendations,  I found I was
looking for any major health care professional organization's recommendation
that breastfeeding the baby through the first year (and beyond) might help
address the obesity epidemic.  Do any of you know if any health care org.
has written this recommendation?  I have not been able to find one, but
would like to refer to it in a presentation.

 

Thanks,
