The natural history of intolerance to soy and extensively hydrolyzed formula in infants with multiple food protein intolerance.
Infants (n = 18) with intolerance to extensively hydrolyzed formulas and soy who responded to an L-amino acid-based elemental formula (AAF) were studied until 3 years of age. By 2 years of age most tolerated non-formula foods, and by 3 years only 3 required AAF. Growth normalized during AAF feeding in 4 infants with failure to thrive.
