I love this formula! I was afraid my pediatrician (MD) would be totally opposed to it but she only asked where I got it from so she could be sure all the necessary nutrients were included in it. She said based on what I told her about the ingredients it sounded like it was ok. I was halving the ingredients since my sister was breastfeeding my baby while I was at work but she recommended that I not do that since the baby needed all the calories he could get (he is at the lower end of the weight curve). Thanks Dr. Mercola for being the best resource, IMO, for healthy alternatives.

I have read that giving cows milk to infants can allow undigested milk proteins to enter the bloodstream and trigger an immune response that can destroy beta cells in the pancreas and lead to type one diabetes.

Note: Breastfeed babies shouldn't be started on solids until at LEAST 6 months. Even then food is a learning curve for chewing/swallowing/exploring so solids is not required if baby is not interested.
