LLL acts as a clearinghouse for information, so of course they would post this. This doesn't mean they did the study, especially since as far as I know they don't do studies. They gather information and make it available.

I'm sure they'd like to see more good long-term impartial studies on this issue too. I know I would. It'd be one more demonstrable way that formula shortchanges, despite claims (not supported by any impartial scientific studies btw) that there's no difference. Individual experiences will vary, but when you look at the numbers for populations of children and RATES of various illnesses, it's beyond clear that there very much is a difference in favor of those lucky enough to have been breastfed.
