Abstract
Parents are devasted by the current shortage of the infant formula. There are many online resources addressing this issue. Using these, we have published summarized guidelines for the families to cope with the current shortage [1]. The US government has responded as well and ordered formulas from Europe to meet the demand and help families. While, we struggle with this crisis, it is time to step back and look at some facts, myths, and misinformation regarding the infant formulas.
