This IS NOT TRUE. Current growth charts based *primarily* on mostly
bottle-fed Caucasian population of North America, but included also many
children breastfed for varying lengths of time and many children of
non-Caucasian ancestry.
Problem is NOT with the growth charts -- problem is with how they are used.
It should be a lot easier to re-train doctors how to interpret the charts
and evaluate growth properly than it is to construct new growth charts.
