[Special milk formulas in the dietary treatment of diarrhea in infants (author's transl)].
233 infants with diarrhea were dietetically treated with 10 different industrially processed milk products, so called "Heilnahrungen" (healing-food) which were available in a fluid (ready to feed) or powdered-form. The curative effect of products containing 1-2% lactose was better than that of the lactose-free ones. There are no objections to the addition of 1-2% fat. The addition of MCT was not necessary. Infants on lactose containing formulas showed the quickest normalization of stools with only a few relapses. This benefit is possibly due to feeding the products in a non diluted form.
