ABSTRACT
Feeding 25 low birth weight infants during a one month period either with special premature formula or with standard formula resulted in better weight gain, nutritional efficacy, fat absorption, and lower frequency of metabolic acidosis in the special premature formula group. Various biochemical indices demonstrated excellent protein and mineral metabolization of this formula, which seem appropriate for the infants studied (1,000-1,750 g birth weight). Both formulae were well tolerated without any untoward effects.
