Summary

The goal of this observational study is to compare the incidence of ARI and/or diarrheal disease associated with feeding different formulas with and without lactoferrin supplement in children of 2-3 years old. 200 children eligible for the study will be enrolled from two study sites and randomly assigned to two groups (a2 growing up stage 3 formula puls lactoferrin supplement, and Enfinitas growing up stage 3 formula) to feed for 90 days. About 160 children (80 for each group) are expected to finish the study, and data will be collected during the four visits across the study.
