Study: Breastfeeding Vs. Formula
Among the myriad decisions expectant mothers have to make, one has to do with the way they will feed their newborn infant. Many women wonder whether it would be best to use formula, and if so, what brand? Or are there more benefits to breast feeding? Those are the questions researchers are attempting to answer through the Washington State University Lactation Nutrition Project. For the past six months, WSU graduate student Mara Riley has worked with researchers Shelley and Mark McGuire to determine the effects of breastfeeding compared to a formula diet. The research is unique according to Riley, who said a study of this kind has not been attempted in the past/Katie Roenigk, Moscow-Pullman Daily News. More here.
