Choosing the right formula for your baby, whether it’s a newborn, infant or toddler, is not easy. It often comes down to trying different options and breastfeeding is always best.

However, if you are unable to breastfeed or choose not to then using a formula is the only way to give your little one the nutrients it needs to develop and grow healthy.

In New Zealand, the manufacture of baby formula is highly regulated. The Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) strictly monitors the quality of baby formula sold, which ensures that your baby is protected from sub-standard products.

Another important factor to consider when selecting a formula is your baby’s age.

Most formula is based on cow’s milk to which some babies may experience an allergic reaction. Using a cow milk-based formula may also lead to digestive problems for some babies.
When either of these things happen, it is necessary to consult your doctor who will recommend a suitable alternative.
In cases where neither cow nor soy formula is suitable, goat milk may be such an alternative.
