"The U.S. Food and Drug Administration recently awarded GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) status to long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFAs), subsequently allowing infant formula manufacturers to add LC-PUFAs to infant formula. Given the controversy surrounding this decision and the subsequent action on the part formula manufacturers, maternal and child health care professionals will find the independent study module, The Role of Long-chain Fatty Acids in Infant Health, by Drs. Follett and Heinig and Ms. Ishii, an invaluable tool. The authors clearly present the science surrounding this complex issue, enabling health care professionals to assist families in making informed decisions. Both the benefits and the risks of supplementation are discussed."
