What brand of milk powder is suitable for babies?
The main food for newborns is breastfeeding, but some mothers are unable to breastfeed due to various reasons. At this time, milk powder must be used instead of breastfeeding. However, there are many milk powder brands on the market, and many parents do not know how to choose the milk powder suitable for their babies. The following is an introduction to which brands of milk powder are more suitable for babies from several aspects.
Ingredient ratio
The proportions of carbohydrates, proteins and fats in milk powder ingredients vary, which is very important for the baby\’s nutrient absorption and digestion. When choosing milk powder, pay attention to the ingredient ratio on the label, especially the protein content. Milk powders from brands such as Durex and Abbott have moderate protein content and are less likely to cause premature growth and overweight in babies. At the same time, the content of other nutrients such as sugar and inorganic salts also needs attention.
No additives
Some milk powder contains chemical additives that babies do not need and may have adverse effects on babies. It is very necessary to choose milk powder without additives, especially for babies aged 0-6 months. Mead Johnson, Wyeth and other brands of milk powder pay more attention to the absence of additives, and are also more in line with European and American standards or the quality standards of Chinese imported dairy products.
Easy to digest and absorb
For the baby\’s digestive system, milk powder must not only be nutritionally balanced, but also be easy to digest and absorb. Some brands of milk powder, such as Nestlé and Biostime, have more added ingredients such as probiotics, prebiotics and polymerized lecithin to help babies digest and absorb. Deciding which milk powder to choose should also be based on the baby\’s individual differences, such as the baby\’s diarrhea.
Brand reputation and reputation
How to choose a trustworthy brand of milk powder is also very important. Some brands, such as Mengniu and Guangming, are relatively popular products, but they focus more on the research and development of dairy products. The milk powder may have a single ingredient. However, major foreign brands such as Mead Johnson and Wyeth have strong market influence and reputation in the Chinese market. It should be noted that each baby is very different. Some babies are suitable for big foreign brands, while others are more suitable for domestic brands.
In general, choosing milk powder suitable for your baby requires comprehensive consideration from multiple angles to ensure that it is beneficial to the baby\’s health and growth. By finding the right brand, you can provide your baby with balanced nutrition and healthy growth.
