Early nutrition and leptin concentrations in later life
This article is incredibly important wake up call for parents of today. This study stresses the importance of nutrition in the infant. Formula feeding may lead to altered hormone patterns that lead to obesity later in life. I cannot stress the importance of good nutrition in the infant enough. When I see parents putting soda into their child’s sippie cup I know society has a serious, serious problem. As parents we need to take 100% responsibility for the nutrition of our children–you control the diet of your child and subsequently their long term health.
