“…The cost of analyzing samples is considerable-often several hundred dollars per participant. In addition, doubly labeled water may also under-or over-estimate intake, with ranges (15% over to 5% under) similar to those seen in test weighing protocols (Haisma et al, 2003;Reilly et al, 2005;Scanlon et al, 2002;Wells et al, 1996).…”

Human milk is a complex and variable fluid of increasing interest to human biologists who study nutrition and health. The collection and analysis of human milk poses many practical and ethical challenges to field workers, who must balance both appropriate methodology with the needs of participating mothers and infants and logistical challenges to collection and analysis. In this review, we address various collection methods, volume measurements, and ethical considerations and make recommendations for field researchers. We also review frequently used methods for the analysis of fat, protein, sugars/lactose, and specific biomarkers in human milk. Finally, we address new technologies in human milk research, the MIRIS Human Milk Analyzer and dried milk spots, which will improve the ability of human biologists and anthropologists to study human milk in field settings.

“…102 Rapid weight gain during the first 4 to 6 months of life is associated with future risk of overweight 103,106 ; studies suggest that partially breastfed and formula-fed infants consume 20% more total calories per day than do exclusively breastfed infants. 104,105 Physicians should identify infants who are gaining weight rapidly and/or whose weight-to-length percentile exceeds the 95th percentile to help correct overfeeding if present.…”

Since the American Heart Association last presented nutrition guidelines for children, significant changes have occurred in the prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors and nutrition behaviors in children. Overweight has increased, whereas saturated fat and cholesterol intake have decreased, at least as percentage of total caloric intake. Better understanding of children's cardiovascular risk status and current diet is available from national survey data. New research on the efficacy of diet intervention in children has been published. Also, increasing attention has been paid to the importance of nutrition early in life, including the fetal milieu. This scientific statement summarizes current available information on cardiovascular nutrition in children and makes recommendations for both primordial and primary prevention of cardiovascular disease beginning at a young age.

“…The intakes of breast milk and of water from nonbreast-milk sources were calculated by fitting the isotopic (tracer) data to a model for water (tracee) turnover in the mothers and infants and measuring the transfer of milk from mother to the infant, as described elsewhere (10).…”

Background:The World Health Organization recommends exclusive breastfeeding until age 6 mo. Studies relying on mothers' selfreported behaviors have shown that lactation counseling increases both the rate and duration of exclusive breastfeeding. Objective: We aimed to validate reported infant feeding practices in rural Bangladesh; intakes of breast milk and nonbreast-milk water were measured by the dose-given-to-the mother deuterium dilution technique. Design: Subjects were drawn from the large-scale Maternal and Infant Nutrition Interventions, Matlab, study of combined interventions to improve maternal and infant health, in which women were randomly assigned to receive either exclusive breastfeeding counseling or standard health care messages. Data on infant feeding practices were collected by questionnaire at monthly visits. Intakes of breast milk and nonbreast-milk water were measured in a subsample of 98 mother-infant pairs (mean infant age: 14.3 wk) and compared with questionnaire data reporting feeding practices. Results: Seventy-five of the 98 subjects reported exclusive breastfeeding. Mean (ȀSD) breast milk intake was 884 Ȁ 163 mL/d in that group and 791 Ȁ 180 mL/d in the group reported as nonexclusively breastfed (P ҃ 0.0267). Intakes of nonbreast-milk water were 40 Ȁ 80.6 and 166 Ȁ 214 mL/d (P 0.0001), respectively. Objective cross-validation using deuterium dilution data showed good accuracy in reporting of feeding practices, although apparent misreporting was widely present in both groups. Conclusions:The dose-given-to-the-mother deuterium dilution technique can be applied to validate reported feeding behaviors. Whereas this technique shows that the reports of feeding practices were accurate at the group level, it is not adequate to distinguish between feeding practices in individual infants. 2007;85:1075-82.
