Soy formula contains no lactose or cholsterol...2 substances which
affect brain growth and function. As previously noted, soy is less
allergenic that milk, but about 30% of those allergic to cows milk will
also be allergic to soy. Phytoestrogens, in such huge amounts for so
long may have potential developmental issues as well.
