That would be lovely. The FDA has sat on this for over two years, mainly because ABBOTT LABS took the unprecedented step of actively opposing DHA and lobbying intensely against it.

The only alternative theory for the stock jump would be a buyout (J&J?). I'm sure we'll here soon.

The post you mention on Yahoo lists Mead Johnson and Carnation. If these companies are planning on putting Formulaid in pre-term only, it is a good step but not the ultimate one we want. What we need is for general use in full-term infant formulas. Following that we need these formulas to start taking market share from the Abbotts of the world forcing them to add it as well. Am I dreaming?
