- 요약Introduction: Toddler milk products are the fastest growing category of commercial milk formulas globally. Marketed to children aged 12 to 36 months, these products typically contain added sugars and less protein than cow's milk. Despite public health recommendations discouraging their use, toddler milk products are frequently promoted as essential for growth and development. This dissertation examines the marketing, consumption, nutritional composition, and purchasing patterns of toddler milk products.Methods: This dissertation uses systematic review, content analysis, and observational methods to examine how toddler milk products are marketed and purchased. Study 1 is a scoping review synthesizing international evidence on caregivers' beliefs, feeding practices, and the influence of toddler milk marketing. Study 2 uses content analysis to examine front-of-package marketing strategies and nutritional content of products sold across the Americas. Study 3 is a repeated cross-sectional analysis of a nationally representative US consumer panel, assessing trends in toddler milk purchasing, volume, and expenditures from 2013 to 2023.Results: Study 1 found that toddler milk sales are increasing globally. Packaging often resembles infant formula and includes claims and imagery that may contribute to caregivers' misperceptions. Young caregivers with higher income and education levels and from minority populations are more likely to provide toddler milk. Study 2 found that nearly all toddler milk products featured at least one front-of-package claim, with nutrition claims most common (on 97% of packages), followed by health claims (56%), and other marketing claims (39%). Visual marketing appeared on 92% of packages, with 21% depicting humans, and many using symbols such as shields (32%) and hearts (27%). Nutritionally, toddler milk products contained more sugar and less protein than cow's milk. Study 3 found that toddler milk purchasing in the US remained relatively stable over the past decade. In 2023, Black or African American-headed households were more likely to purchase toddler milk products than White-headed households, while divorced, separated, or widowed households were less likely than married ones to purchase them.Conclusions: Toddler milk marketing is widespread and can be misleading. Although US purchasing remains stable, clear labeling regulations and public health messaging are needed to address inappropriate marketing practices.
