title: [The development of children who were breast-fed for a long time].
abstract: In the Basle Kindergarten study children who were breast-fed for more than 18 weeks were compared in their development with children who had never received breast milk. The children were grouped according to their origin in Italian and Swiss children. The difference in height between breast-fed and non breastfed children was found to be significative in Italian children. Breast-fed children had higher cholesterol levels than children who had never been suckled.
