Re your second note: sounds great but I would say "sur LE lait." Or you could even say "...dont l'alimentation est principalement à base de lait..."

Also, please excuse my English answer. I got confused and thought this was in the English-to-English forum!

"en grande partie" would be more accurate than "principalement" in my second suggestion

Asker: what about sthing like ' Les enfants dont l'alimentation est basee en grande partie (that is changing the original slightly) sur du lait courent le risque ..?
