简要总结
The purpose of this study is to determine the glucose response of complementary feeding regimens consisting of two different follow-up formulas (FUFs) and infant cereals (ICs).
详细描述
This is a prospective, randomized, single-blind, controlled, 2-arm parallel group trial in infants aged 6 months (26 weeks) at enrollment, who are no longer breastfed, and who are ready but have not yet started complementary feeding. They will be fed one of two different isocaloric feeding regimens (Experimental [EXPL] or Control [CTRL]) consisting of different follow-up formulas (FUFs) and infant cereals (ICs). The main purpose of this study is to determine the glucose response of these two different complementary feeding regimens. All enrolled infants will participate in the trial for approximately 6 months.
