Does anyone have any good, recent references on how breastfeeding may
reduce the incidence of later obesity in children? (I have a study by
Kramer from 1981)  How breastfeeding may be related to a reduction in later
eating disorders, such as anorexia nervosa?
I also wonder if anyone has recent calculations of the cost of a one year
supply of formula for one baby in North America.  This may vary by region.
