So I'm practically jumping on tables over this one. The AAP just came out with new guidelines because bone-deteriorating diseases are making a comeback. Children are in danger! Apparently, the pint-sized set isn't getting enough vitamin D to combat rickets - whatever that is.
Check this out. Breastmilk does not have sufficient vitamin D. Breastmilk-fed babies need vitamin D supplements or they will crumble to sawdust. HOWEVER, formula-fed babies are fine. They will not crumble to pieces because they get enough vitamin D from their formula.
So there you have it, Breastmilk. Not so perfect, are you?
