據歐盟食品安全局（EFSA）消息，2013年10月25日歐盟食品安全局就嬰幼兒的營養需求及膳食攝入量發布意見，認為1-3歲幼兒配方食品并非滿足幼兒營養所必需，其中的主要營養素可以從幼兒日常飲食中獲取。
部分原文報道如下：
Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Dietetic Products, Nutrition and Allergies （NDA） was asked to deliver a Scientific Opinion on the nutrient requirements and dietary intakes of infants and young children in the European Union.
No unique role of young-child formulae with respect to the provision of critical nutrients in the diet of infants and young children living in Europe can be identified, so that they cannot be considered as a necessity to satisfy the nutritional requirements of young children when compared with other foods that may be included in the normal diet of young children （such as breast milk, infant formulae, follow-on formulae and cow's milk）。
