I would like to know more about the latest information regarding the
relationship between exposure to cows milk and later development of diabetes. I
have read some information about this, but nothing recent. We have a mother who
is insulin dependent diabetic who decided to bottlefeed after one day of
nursing, and the MD said it would be okay for the child to go onto Enfamil. I
questioned it, but she said she has no information about withholding cows milk
formulas to babies of diabetics. Did the studies I read not hold up? I would
appreciate any new information on this. Thanks.
