Formula risks...I believe



  • Formula has risks that are unacceptable if breastmilk is available
  • Formula has risks but it's OK to choose it if you understand the risks
  • Formula has risks but it's OK to choose it even if you DONT understand the risks
  • Formula has some risks but they are overblown
  • Formula has risks but so does breastmilk, and the risks are about the same
  • Formula doesn't have any risks
  • Other, please explain

"Toni,
Is there an actual medical term for this phenomenon?"


I'm familiar with the term 'leaky gut' - probably a lay-term though ;) I did find this (and many other links on 'leaky gut syndrome')


http://www.allergyescape.com/leaky-gut-syndrome.html


This links to a study about probiotic formulas and how they try to approximate the gut flora that helps prevent leaky gut syndrome (notice they used bf infants as the baseline, wonder why ;)

It's not substandard to those who can't or are not breastfeeding.

"An unbiased website."


What's the criteria you are looking for in an "unbiased" website?
