Here's where we will tell you all about various ingredients which are present in cows milk or have been added to infant formulae by the manufacturers, in an effort to make their formulae better than their rivals'. Although all additives have to be safe, and need a research basis, much of the research is on a very small scale, or is largely inconclusive.
