Abstract
Sub-optimal infant nutrition has far-reaching consequences; globally it remains one of the most important causes of early childhood death. Nutritional state strongly influences the capacity to withstand infections as well as the long-term potential for physical growth and intellectual development. Much recent research has focussed on early nutrition which acts to stimulate programming of the metabolic phenotype thereby influencing later mortality and morbidity in the industrialised world. 1 Important as it is, optimising infant nutrition can be an elusive goal. Attempts to change behaviour must recognise that social, economic and cultural factors can exert stronger influences in this area than the advice of health professionals.
