Janice I didnt' read the article or go to the website, but I think this might be a case of comparing an infant's diet to an adult's diet. for example, breastmilk contains cholesterol, necessary for development, but adults are supposed to limit chol. intake. Breastmilk having trans fats in it, so what? The infant is growing and developing the eyes, CNS, etc. Adults are not infants. We do not exist only on milk, but infants do. So, yes, I think this is fear mongering. Well said. Laurie Wheeler, IBCLC, MN, RN New Orleans Louisiana, s.e.
