Summary

This study tested whether a goat-milk infant formula helps healthy babies grow as well as a standard cow-milk formula. Over 400 infants were fed either goat milk, cow milk test formula, or a regular cow-milk formula for 16 weeks. Researchers measured weight gain and checked for side effects. The goal was to see if the goat milk formula is a safe and effective alternative.
