Maria J. Romo-Palafox, PhD, RD, discusses a new study in the Journal of Nutrition Education and Behavior in which more than one-third of infant caregivers surveyed reported serving at least one non-recommended milk type to their infant in the past month. Factors such as the child’s age, household income, the racial and ethnic background of the caregiver, and the product’s marketing claims were associated with which milk type the children received.
