| mrmm's Full Review: Babys Own Organic Toddler Formula |
For those of you searching for a healthy alternative to enfamil or similac this is it. As the prior opinion stated I also had problems breast-feeding and had to resort to formula use. The ingredients in these formulas are less than ideal. The milk based formulas have growth hormones as well as traces of antibiotics.
When my baby became excessively gassy on the milk based formula I switched to soy. This did help somewhat but I had many concerns using a soy based formula. First, the soy used is genetically engineered and that in itself has many potential harms. Secondly, there is research that suggests that the use of soy as a sole source of nutrition for infants can interfere with thyroid function.
I called baby's own and explained my dilemma. They stated that the gassiness might not be caused by the milk but possibly by some other inferior ingredient in the formula. I believe this was the case as my baby is doing wonderful since we switched over to baby's own. (for those babies with true milk allergies, the company is introducing a soy formula in about six months.)
I am so happy I found this web site which led me to this product. Although the can states toddler formula this is produced to be used as an infant formula also. It meets all the requirements of the federally mandated infant formula act. They are in the last stages of FDA approval which will enable them to use the term infant formula.
I hope this helps some of you moms out there! My 12 week old baby is happy, healthy and content.
