On one of my other lists someone posted this as a possible substitute
for commercial formula. The reason someone needed a substitute is they
are pregnant and their child is 9 months old. Their supply has dropped
substantially and nursing is becoming much more painful for mom now
entering her second trimester. My understanding is this is put forth by
a *Doctor (who) is a die hard vegan and macrobiotic supporter and really
believes in good diet*.
So what do you think?
