The  offspring of diabetic mothers have an increased risk of developing
these  two conditions, principal investigator Dr. Andreas Plagemann and
colleagues  from Charite-University Medicine Berlin, Germany, note in the
June issue of  Diabetes Care. "Recently, we observed that early neonatal
ingestion of  breast milk from diabetic mothers may dose-dependently
increase the risk of  overweight in childhood."



Dear Friends:
    I wonder what associations the principal  researchers  have with 
industry. 
    This article makes no sense at all; are they  saying that human milk is 
bad for babies?
    Seems like another sophisticated crock of manure to  me.
    warmly,
