The objective of this double blinded randomized study is to assess the tolerance of two extensively protein hydrolyzed infant formulas, one based on rice protein and the other one on casein, at introduction, and after 3 months of consumption, and their efficacy on growth and on the reduction of allergy symptoms through a 3 months consumption period.
