Nutrition in infancy and long-term risk of obesity: evidence from 2 randomized controlled trials

Nutrition in infancy and long-term risk of obesity: evidence from 2 randomized controlled trials

BACKGROUND: Growth acceleration as a consequence of relative overnutrition in infancy has been suggested to increase the risk of later obesity. However, few studies have investigated this association by using an experimental study design. OBJECTIVE: We investigated the effect of early growth promoti...

Zusammenfassung:BACKGROUND: Growth acceleration as a consequence of relative overnutrition in infancy has been suggested to increase the risk of later obesity. However, few studies have investigated this association by using an experimental study design. OBJECTIVE: We investigated the effect of early growth promotion on later body composition in 2 studies of infants born small for gestational age (weight
