  • Title: [Effect of feeding methods in infants on serum lipid profile].
    Author: Maślanka R, Siemianowicz K, Stajszczyk M, Wojakowski W.
    Journal: Pediatr Pol; 1995 Jul; 70(7):579-83. PubMed ID: 8649957.
    Abstract:
    Mothers very often do not start to breast feed their children, or stop very quickly and introduce various formulas based either on modified or unmodified cow's milk. These infant formulas differ from human milk in their chemical composition. Breast milk is the most suitable source of all nutrients required for the development of a newborn or infant. The serum levels of total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, triglycerides and phospholipids were determined. The influence of the type of feeding on the levels of the above-mentioned lipids was analyzed. Higher serum levels of triglycerides in babies fed formulas based on modified cow's milk than in those fed formulas based on unmodified milk were found. Higher serum levels of phospholipids were found in breast-fed babies than in those fed formulas based on unmodified cow's milk.
