Choosing the right organic formula can feel overwhelming. Below are the questions we hear most—and the answers backed by science, real-world experience, and 35+ years of research.
1. What makes Kendamil different from other organic formulas?
Answer:
-
Whole-milk base: Unlike skim-milk blends, Kendamil’s use of full-fat milk provides naturally balanced fats.
-
Plant-based DHA: Derived from algae, supporting brain and eye development without fish oil.
-
UK Soil Association certified: Meets some of the world’s strictest organic standards—no GMOs, pesticides, or herbicides.
2. How does HiPP compare—especially for gut health?
Answer:
-
Prebiotics & probiotics: HiPP’s exclusive Biotik® blend helps establish healthy gut flora.
-
Farm-to-jar purity: Cows graze on chemical-free meadows; no artificial fertilizers or antibiotics.
-
Breastmilk mimicry: Formulated to closely mirror human milk’s oligosaccharides and fatty-acid profile.
-
Specialized lines: From gentle “Comfort” to hypoallergenic “AC,” support for sensitive tummies.
3. Why choose Holle’s biodynamic formulas?
Answer:
-
Organic & biodynamic ingredients: Harvested under the Demeter standards for peak nutrient integrity.
-
Two milk bases: Cow or goat—ideal if you want to trial a goat-milk option without synthetic additives.
-
Minimal additives: No prebiotics added (softer on digestion if you’re introducing solids).
4. Is goat-milk formula really better for some babies?
Answer:
-
Easier digestion: Goat proteins form softer curds in the stomach, reducing spit-up and colic.
-
Pure Goat’s extras: Organic full-fat milk plus GOS fibre (prebiotic) and algae-based DHA—no maltodextrin or palm oil.
5. How do I switch formulas without upsetting my baby’s tummy?
Answer:
-
Gradual mix: Start with 75% old formula + 25% new for 2 days → 50/50 for 2 days → 25/75 → full swap.
-
Watch for cues: Monitor for changes in stool, spit-up frequency, and overall comfort.
-
Ask your pediatrician: Especially if your little one has a history of sensitivities.
