The Milk To Complement Breastfeeding

When It comes to feeding your baby, breastfeeding is the ultimate resource to fulfil your baby’s needs. However, in today’s world and age, going with a 100% breastfeeding method is impossible for so many working mothers. That is why formula milk comes up, and the best formula milk that can complement breastfeeding is the Organic Baby Formula, which you can start from day one (ideally one or two ounces after every 2 to 3 hours).

If you decide to go with organic baby formula, you need a careful selection of many good options. The organic milk comes in from Cow or goat source. HiPP and Holle both are EU certified organic formulas and contain the highest quality standards. So, depending upon what suits your baby, you can choose the respective one. Different companies make both formulas. Let’s take a closer look to understand these products better.

HiPP Nutritional Insight

HiPP uses cow milk in all its products. It comes up with a variety of products according to different age groups from pre to 12+ months. Its composition is quite close to breastmilk with natural prebiotics and probiotics added to the mix. Also, it contains lactose as a natural sweetener.

Moreover, the HiPP formula has products catering to baby stomach issues like digestive issues and acid reflux. So if your child is facing acid reflux issues, you can try getting the HiPP Anti-Reflux formula.

For a newborn, if you want to get milk closer to the healthy nutrients of breast milk, you can go with HiPP organic Combiotic PRE stage. This formula provides similar omega 3, omega 6, and fatty acids as in the breast milk.

Holle Nutritional Insight

Besides cow milk source, Holle products employ goat milk source in its products. The goat milk is easier to digest, so Holle goat is ideal the babies with colic and digestive issues.

Holle also comes up with products covering all age groups from Pre-stage to 12 months. Unlike HiPP, Holle does not use wheat, soy, nuts, and other allergens in their products. All their products are sugar-free and contain no synthetic ingredients.

Most of the Holle products contain lactose and maltodextrin as the primary source of carbs. On the other hand, Holle formulas don’t contain added prebiotics and probiotics; however, you can get those from any health store.

Holle goat formula also contains short-chain fatty acids, making it easier to absorb than cow milk.

Hipp Or Holle — Which one suits you best?

Like said earlier, both HiPP and Holle carry the highest quality standards and are EU certified organic. Both HiPP and Holle are rich in vitamins, proteins, healthy fatty acids, and carbs, supporting your infant/baby’s growth.

If your baby is suffering from colic and constipation, go with the HiPP comfort formula. On the other hand, Holle goat milk formula will help you prevent indigestion due to its lesser lactose content.

In a nutshell, the choice is yours. Understand your baby’s needs, consult your paediatrician, and pick the right organic baby formula for your baby.
