Taste preference, food neophobia and nutritional intake in children consuming a cows' milk exclusion diet: a prospective study

摘要

BackgroundTaste exposure in infancy is known to predict food preferences later in childhood. This is particularly relevant in children with cows' milk allergy who consume a substitute formula and/or a cows' milk exclusion (CME) diet early in life. This prospective study aimed to show whether there is a long-term effect of consuming a substitute formula and CME diet on taste preferences and dietary intake.
