[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Read those links, people. 
I don't think they say what the poster is claiming.

Sure, read yourself.

Link #1 (CDC) says:  "Baby’s milk or infant formula does not need to be warmed before feeding, but some people like to warm their baby’s bottle."  https://www.cdc.gov/nutrition/infantandtoddlernutrition/formula-feeding/infant-formula-preparation-and-storage.html

Link #2 (about formula preparation in the NICU) says " samples that had been warmed (P<0.050) and those that were either milk-based or casein hydrolysate (P<0.001) were more likely to be contaminated."  https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18926137

Link #3 (about warming feeds in the NICU) says "the benefit of warming feedings [for preemies] and to what ideal temperature is still without good evidence...  For term infants, feedings may be given at body temperature, room temperature or straight from the refrigerator. "  It asks, "Does milk temperature have an effect on overall body temperature?  One study found no matter what the milk temperature was, body temperature increased.  This is likely related to the increase in metabolic rate following feeding."  http://blog.neonatalperspectives.com/2015/05/14/warming-of-infant-feedings/  [/quote]
