Nationwide Representation - Necrotizing Enterocolitis Linked to Cow's Milk Formula
Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC) is a life-threatening intestinal condition affecting premature infants. Studies have linked cow's milk-based baby formula to increased risk of NEC in preterm babies compared to breast milk.
Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is a devastating condition where intestinal tissue becomes inflamed and dies, primarily affecting premature infants. This serious medical emergency can lead to life-threatening complications and long-term health issues.
Scientific studies have demonstrated that cow's milk-based formula significantly increases the risk of NEC compared to breast milk in premature infants, yet manufacturers continued marketing these products without adequate warnings.
Major formula manufacturers allegedly failed to adequately warn parents and healthcare providers about the substantially increased NEC risk in premature infants, prioritizing profits over infant safety.
