Infants who drink formula was prone to excess weight at the beginning of the age of five years.
Research shows that weight gain in less time can affect your life and put at risk of disease, ranging from heart disease to diabetes.
The review found that healthy infants who consumed milk protein formula enriched with vitamins, and several other nutrients will experience the addition of body fat by 22 to 38 percent, when between five and eight years than those who only consume milk bottle regular.
The British researcher, quoted by the Daily Mail, believes that babies are consuming excess calories. They gained weight in the most important growth period.
Previous research showed that 20 percent of adults suffer from obesity caused by excess nutrients and excess weight in childhood.
The mother was warned never to diwanti rich nutrition for children with low birth weight if they can not give milk. Now, doctors confirmed that “fatten” the baby needs only to those born prematurely.
“This study supports the program with breast milk because babies do not have excess food,” said Professor Atul Singhal of the MRC Childhood Nutrition Research Centre, University College London, who led the study.
“The results will also be a concern that infant formula manufacturers to further improve their product,” he continued.
Singhal and his team studied a small number of newborns in several hospitals in Cambridge, Nottingham, Leicester and Glasgow. In their research, scientists or the mother does not know what type of formula consumed by infants, either general or special formula that contains a variety of vitamins, proteins and minerals.
In the first study, which followed 299 children born in 1993 and 1995, infant formula fortified milk had a variety of nutrients consumed during the nine months.
The second study involved 246 children born between 2003 and 2005 was stopped early because there is no evidence that the link between nutrient excess and obesity are on the first study.
Britain is a country with the lowest breastfeeding rate in Europe with an average of one in three mothers did not give milk to your child.
Meanwhile, an earlier study also suggests that babies fed formula initially and then switch to solid foods earlier than recommended, ie six months, will become the fastest growing child.
Experts believe that the relationship between caloric intake and body weight are very strong in infants than in older children. Breastfeeding is believed related to weight more slowly, instead of formula will increase the production of fat cells so that the baby’s weight will increase rapidly.
