All values are means ± SDs. Meat group: n = 14; Cereal group: n = 28. An independent Student's t test was used to compare groups. BM, breast milk; Cereal group, lower-protein group; CF, complementary feeding; Meat group, higher-protein group.

Significant difference between the Meat and Cereal groups (P < 0.001).
