How much of a difference could breast feeding make?

The findings of this particular study indicate that those children breastfed for less then six months had a 52% likelihood of a mental health problem at as early as age two. In the sample, the risk was shown to increase to 61% at age eight and then decrease to 37% by the age of ten, in those children breastfed less then six months.

  1. 据我爸妈亲述,我一出世就是吃奶粉的,从来都没有breastfed过,那就是说。。。我现在可以这么正常,这么“人见人爱”,完全是靠后天努力的,呵呵~~而且如果偶然脑袋有点小毛病,或者乱说话,请你们见谅罗!
    p.s. 好好奇你点解无端端研究呢样野??

  3. I am highly skeptical about any medical empirical test results..
     
    They tend to be poor statisticians; the quality of their data is often poor; and they often have incentives to manipulate results..
