Friso® Gold is specially formulated with P2 Dual System™, which contains Friso® Synbiotic Agent, a combination of 2 Prebiotics and 2 Probiotics (Bifidobacterium lactis, Lactobacillus paracasei).
How effective is the Friso® Synbiotic Agent?
A study has revealed that children who received Synbiotics – a combination of Prebiotics and Probiotics – showed lower frequency of diarrhoea and allergy1.
Prebiotics help increase intestinal bifidobacteria and maintain good intestinal environment. Healthy live bacteria may help in reducing diarrhoea cases.2
It also contains DHA, AA3 and SA, which speed up information relay between brain cells, which aid a growing child’s overall development.

Anmum Milk Powder

Anmum Materna™ is especially formulated for women who are pregnant or who are planning for pregnancy. Anmum Materna™ is high in Folate, which is important to maintain the growth and development of the foetus. Delicious tasting Anmum Materna™ also contains Gangliosides, Folate DHA, FOS, Calcium, Iron as well as other essential nutrients. It is an ideal supplement that will aid in maintaining the growth and brain development of your unborn child.

 Anmum Lacta™ is formulated to maintain the nutritional composition of breast milk while replenishing maternal stores during the post-natal period. Breastmilk contains mostly all the nourishment needed for the first 6 months of your child’s life. Certain vitamins in a mother’s breast milk are largely dependent on a mother’s dietary intake. Anmum Lacta™ is high in vitamin B1, B2, B3, B12, Folate, Calcium and Iron. It also contains Gangliosides, Folate, DHA, Calcium, Vitamin D, FOS and other important nutrients that support the nutritional quality of your breastmilk.

2 Fooks LJ & Gibson GR (2002) Probiotics as modulators of the gut flora. British Journal of Nutrition 88, Suppl.1, S39-S49
Different types of sugars and the role of sugar in Growing Up Milk
Sugars like natural sugar and natural added sugar are types of Carbohydrates. They are important because Carbohydrates are a main source of energy to ensure the healthy growth & development of the body and brain of growing up children.
Natural sugar called lactose can be found in milk while natural added sugar comes from plants (described as added sugar because it’s not found naturally in milk). In terms of calories, there is no difference between the two. In fact, when you take sugar naturally found in milk (lactose), it also counts as part of your total sugar consumption.
Friso Growing Up Milk is nutritionally designed using a combination of naturally present sugars like lactose, and added natural sugars.

Is Your Child Getting Enough Vitamin D ?

Did you know that in 2010, the Institute of Medicine significantly increased the recommended intake of vitamin D for children? What’s more, a study published in the journal of Pediatrics in March 2010 shows that approximately 80 percent of Hispanic children in the U.S. may have inadequate levels of Vitamin D.
Vitamin D is essential for healthy bones, teeth and nails. Since Vitamin D does not occur naturally in many foods, consuming milk and other dairy products fortified with Vitamin D is one of the easiest ways for children to obtain Vitamin D in their diets. And although many Hispanic moms are already enthusiastic about dairy products, it is possible they may not be aware of what the right amount of Vitamin D is, and how much is actually in the foods they give their children.
“As moms, we can help support our toddlers’ healthy growth with foods that contain the nutrients and vitamins required for their healthy development,” said registered dietitian and author Claudia Gonzalez.
If you are like most moms, you are probably wondering how you can incorporate more vitamin D into your child’s diet. “Children should get approximately 400 to 600 IUs of Vitamin D a day which translates into three cups of milk. One product that I recommend, which is a good source of Vitamin D and an excellent source of calcium, is NIDO® Kinder 1+, a powdered milk beverage with Prebio 1, a fiber blend, and vitamins and minerals to help support a child’s healthy immune system.” said Gonzalez.
In addition, take your toddlers outside for some fun in the sun. Engaging in physical activity outdoors is a sure way to get some sun exposure, an important source of vitamin D, and also keeps them fit and healthy. Just remember to apply sunscreen if you plan to be outside more than 15 minutes.
Here, Claudia suggests other easy-to-follow tips so that your toddler gets the right amount of Vitamin D, especially in the fall and winter months when they can’t go outside and play:
  • Upgrade the status of milk. Do not think of milk as just a “breakfast food.” Serve a glass of milk for lunch or dinner, or even with snacks.
  • Give milk a makeover. Try new and fun ways to serve milk. For example, blend some fruit with milk to make a delicious shake or smoothie.
  • Drink milk everywhere you go. If you and your child are constantly on the go, remember that NESTLÉ® NIDO® 1+ is a convenient and tasty option – and best of all, it has important vitamins and minerals for healthy growth.
If you are concerned about the right amount of vitamin D for your child, consult your pediatrician or a registered dietitian to learn more about your child’s specific needs.

Enfamil Lactose Free A+ Infant Formula

Anmum Essential Growing Up Milk



ADVANCED FORMULATION
The advanced formulation of Anmum Essential contains:
  • Absolutely no added sugars: children do not need excessive added sugars, so why have them in their growing up milk?
  • Gangliosides: An important nutrient found abundantly in the brain. Maximise brain cell connections for faster learning
  • DHA: An important nutrient found abundantly in the brain
  • Inulin and FOS: Dietary fibres. It is important for your child to have a good intestinal environment for effective absorption of nutrients
  • Fortified with vitamin and minerals your child needs every day: Growing children have specific nutritional needs. Optimal nutrition is important for proper growth and development.

Anmum Essential's concentrated formulation with no added sugars means you use less powder to make the same size cup of growing up milk. This means more serves in every pack and more nutrition packed in to every serve¹.

Soya-based Baby Formula

Soya-based formula is made from soya beans. It is modified with vitamins, minerals and nutrients to make it suitable for formula milk.

Only give your baby soya-based formula on the advice of your doctor, health visitor or paediatrician. Even though manufacturers market their soya formulas as suitable for babies from birth, health professionals don't recommend them for babies under six months.

It's not recommended that your baby has soya formula if she has a cow’s milk allergy. Babies who are allergic to cow's milk are often allergic to soya, too.

There is also no evidence that changing to a soya-based formula can help to soothe your baby if she is unsettled or colicky. Your baby may be colicky because she’s intolerant to lactose, and so a lactose-free formula is best if this is the case. Ask your doctor or health visitor for advice if you think your baby has an allergy or intolerance to cow’s milk.

There are no particular health benefits that your baby would get from soya formula compared to other formula milks. In fact, soya formula milks can actually damage your baby’s teeth over time, because they contain glucose syrup. If you do give your baby soya milk, you’ll have to take extra special care of her teeth.

Hydrolysed-Protein Baby Formula

This is a formula milk which is specially designed for babies with an allergy or intolerance to cow's milk. If your baby has a cow’s milk allergy, the protein in the milk will cause an allergic reaction. And if she has an intolerance to cow’s milk, she will have difficulty digesting the lactose, or sugar, in the milk.

Hydrolysed-protein formula milks are based on cow's milk and have the same nutritional value as standard formula milk. But the protein in the milk is hydrolysed, which means it is broken down so your baby is less likely to react to it. These milks are also generally lactose-free, so babies with an intolerance to cow’s milk can digest them easily.

If you think your baby has a cow's milk allergy or intolerance, see your doctor or health visitor. Your doctor will be able to prescribe a hydrolysed-protein formula for your baby. You can buy these from your pharmacy, too. You can also buy special lactose-free formulas, which your doctor may suggest is your baby has a lactose intolerance.

Cow’s Milk-based Baby Formula

Most baby formula milks are based on cow's milk, which is modified to resemble breastmilk as closely as possible. Manufacturers modify cow's milk for babies by adjusting carbohydrate, protein, and fat levels and adding vitamins and minerals. There are also special types of formula manufactured for premature babies.

The protein in milk can be broken down into curds (casein) and whey. The ratio of casein to whey can vary according to the type of baby formula milk. There are two main types:
  • First-stage formula. These milks consist of mostly whey, with a casein:whey ratio of 40:60, which is about the same as breastmilk. They are suitable for your baby from birth up to about a year, and are thought to be easier to digest.
  • Second-stage formula. These milks consist of mostly casein, with a casein:whey ratio of 80:20. They take longer to digest and are often promoted as being for hungrier babies.
Nutritionally, your baby will only need first-stage formula, although you may decide to move your baby onto second-stage formula as she grows.

Be cautious when changing your baby’s milk. Switching from first to second-stage milk too early can give your baby constipation. Although many milk manufacturers market their second-stage milk as suitable from birth, it’s best to wait until your baby is at least four weeks old. If your baby doesn’t seem content with the formula you first started her on, talk to your health visitor before changing formulas.

When your baby’s a year old, you can move her on from first or second-stage formula to cow's milk. Cow’s milk is not recommended as a main drink for babies under the age of one because it’s low in iron and vitamin C. But you can use small amounts in cooking for your baby when she’s started solids, or on her breakfast cereal.

Baby Milk Nutrition

Every calorie of milk, by nature, contains many essential nutrients, which make milk extremely nutritious. Scientists have discovered more than 400 components in milk that are important for the energy provision, growth, development, protection and maintenance of the human body. Two to three portions of dairy per day provide important nutrients such as protein, fats, lactose, vitamins and minerals.
Nutrients
Every nutrient plays its own specific role in metabolism/nutrition. Proteins deliver energy and are vital for building and maintaining tissues such as muscles, transporting substances and oxygen in the blood, and the formation of antibodies and bones.
Fat delivers energy, ensures isolation in the skin and plays a role in hormone production. Milk fat also contains soluble vitamins A and D. Other important water-soluble vitamins in milk are B1 (for carbohydrate and energy combustion, B2 (for energy metabolism and a healthy skin) B6 (necessary for the nervous system, the formation of red blood cells and the immune system), B11 (folic acid) is necessary for the immune system and the production of blood and B12 (needed for the formation of red blood cells, the immune system, cell division and energy metabolism).
When it comes to the minerals: calcium plays a major role in building bones and teeth, muscle function, digestion, energy metabolism and blood clotting; Phosphorous is necessary for bones and teeth, cell membranes and energy metabolism; Zink plays an important role in the immune system, a maintains bones, sight and the brain and is involved in the memory function.
This is how milk provides a good balance between nutrition and energy for all ages. What’s more, drinking milk is a good way to take in sufficient fluid, since milk consists largely of water.

Cow & Gate milks and foods

Growing babies and toddlers need the right balance of vitamins and nutrients to grow up happy and healthy. That’s why Cow & Gate milks and foods have been specially tailored to give them the nutrition they’ll love at each stage of their development.

 The milk and food you give your baby for their first 3 years of life are essential for their growth and development, and for establishing the foundations for lifelong healthy eating habits. That’s why Cow & Gate is devoted to helping you feed your baby the right nutrition at each stage of their development.

 What makes good brain food for the child in your tummy?

Folic acid: Folic acid is an essential B vitamin that pregnant women need to reduce the risks of brain and spinal defects in their children. The fact is everyone needs folic acid as it helps the body make new cells. For pregnant women, the need increases because folic acid also helps to combat anaemia, miscarriages and premature deliveries. However, in reality, only 3 out of 5 women get sufficient folic acid during their pregnancies. So it’s important for you to up your folic acid needs and you can find this essential nutrient in leafy green vegetables, dried beans, peas and of course, Anmum® milk.
