Abstract:
BACKGROUND:The best nutritional option for newborn infants is mother's milk. However, some newborn babies may not be exclusively breastfed during the first months of life, potentially leading to reduced overall health status and the early onset of allergic diseases in some infants. Considerable research has been devoted to the development and assessment of infant nutrition programmes, particularly to the prevention of allergies in high-risk infants. However, equal numbers of infants with and without an elevated familial risk of allergies will eventually develop allergic diseases. Therefore, optimizing nutritional programmes for the early infant population as a whole is an important--but as yet insufficiently studied--area of investigation. Moreover, although safe and effective nutrition must primarily support healthy development of the infant, few studies have evaluated the overall health benefits of nutritional interventions, but have focussed on specific allergic manifestations. In animal models, an allergen-reduced moderate whey hydrolysate formula (pHF, Nestlé Beba HA) induces the development of oral tolerance towards cow's milk proteins, without inducing sensitization. In infants with a high risk for allergies, pHF formulae reduce the early onset of allergic disease during the first 5 years of life by approximately 50% compared with a dietary regimen of unaltered proteins. At present, very little is known about the overall health benefits of such a dietary intervention on the unselected infant population as a whole. AIM OF THE STUDY:The aim of our prospective, controlled study was to investigate the overall health benefits of an allergen-reduced nutritional programme in a newborn infant population unselected for atopic risk factors. The population in our study was as comparable as possible to the general population of healthy newborn infants. Our study included exclusive breastfeeding, use of a moderate whey hydrolysate formula (pHF, Nestlé Beba HA) if infant formula was needed, and delayed introduction of low-allergenic weaning foods. The study included assessments of compliance with the dietary programme, and evaluated nutritional habits, growth, and overall health status for 24 months. The health evaluation included allergic manifestations but did--by porpose--not define or evaluate them specifically. Part I of this paper gives results for nutritional habits during the first 6 months of life, Part II gives results for growth and general health status for the same time period, Part III will present feeding habits during the second half of the first year of life, and Part IV will present results to 24 months of age. The complete study report is published as a supplement to this journal. METHODS:Nutritional assignment was to demographically comparable intervention (Z) or control (FF) cohorts according to the infant's place of birth. In the intervention cohort (Z, n = 564), the recommended dietary regimen was breastfeeding and/or the pHF formula, with no weaning food before 4 months of age. In the control cohort (FF, n = 566), there was no intervention. Longitudinal diet groups, defined for 4 months, excluding dropouts and noncompliants, were exclusive breastfeeding (eBF, Z, n = 201, FF, n = 162), partial breastfeeding (pBF, Z, n = 222, FF, n = 311), or non-breastfeeding (nBF, Z, n = 43, FF, n = 62). Imbalances between groups and cohorts in confounding factors that could influence health-related symptoms were integrated as covariates into the main analyses using logistic regression. Nutritional surveillance was carried out using continuous prospective monitoring. RESULTS:The overall rate of breastfeeding, irrespective of partial or exclusive breastfeeding or the additional use of weaning foods, was similar in both cohorts at 4 and 6 months. However, from ages 3 to 6 months, significantly more Z than FF infants were exclusively breastfed (p < 0.05), and weaning foods were introduced at a significantly later age in Z t
