| Abstract: | Current advice on mixed feeding for the infant is reviewed, with reference to recent reports in the UK. Changes in practice are illustrated and the relevance to the infant of current advice for a prudent diet in adulthood is discussed. It is suggested that future reports on infant feeding may need to be more fully extended to the pre-school child. |
