The cows' milk in formula contains 2 types of proteins – whey and casein. First infant formula is based on whey protein which is thought to be easier to digest than other types of formula.Both formulas contain 100% whey, partially hydrolyzed protein which is easier to digest than intact protein. The instructions for making up anti-reflux formulas may be different to standard formula. The usual guidelines for how to make up baby formula recommend using boiled water that has stood for no more than 30 minutes, so that the temperature is still above 70C. The Health Executive Ireland.

It is suitable as the sole source of nutrition up to six months of age, and in conjunction with solid food up to 18 months of age. Lactose intolerance is rare in babies. Symptoms include diarrhoea, abdominal pain, wind and bloating.

Comfort milk has much less lactose (milk sugar) in it than normal formula, it helps babies who are having trouble digesting the lactose. It won't make any difference if the only problem is trapped air in the tummy. Infacol is used to disperse the trapped air, but on the other hand using Infacol won't help if the baby is having trouble digesting the lactose. Researchers often believe these additional ingredients don’t make one formula superior. If they were, the compositional criteria for the formula milk would be amended. What is a Comfort Formula?

The comfort formulas are not best for babies with cow’s milk allergy, so it is advisable to include them in your baby’s diet should your baby have cow’s milk allergy. Remember that formula will always be the formula, breast milk will be breast milk, and their health benefits are incomparable. Soya formula is made from soya beans, not cows' milk. It's occasionally used as an alternative to cows' milk formula for babies who have cows' milk allergy. The National Health Service (NHS).

It is suitable as the sole source of nutrition up to six months of age, and in conjunction with solid food up to 12 months of age. If the baby’s reflux does not improve within two weeks of starting SMA ® Anti-Reflux, or if the baby fails to thrive, the family doctor should be consulted.

We believe that breastfeeding is the ideal nutritional start for babies and we fully support the World Health Organization’s recommendation of exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months of life followed by the introduction of adequate nutritious complementary foods along with continued breastfeeding up to two years of age.Kanabar D et al. Improvement of symptoms in infant colic following reduction of lactose load with lactase. J Hum Nutr Dietet 2001; 14: 359-363. There are mostly two formula forms: a dry powder that you prepare with water or a ready-to-feed liquid formula.
