Regarding the post about blacks and diabetes. I thought that the
correlation between formula intake and increased risk of diabetes has
only been made for TYPE I diabetes (formerly known as "juvenile onset"
diabetes).
I believe the article was referring to TYPE II diabetes ("adult onset"),
which is generally associated with adult lifestyle choices. I cannot recall
a link to TYPE II diabetes and breastfeeding being made yet (If I am
wrong, please let me know).
