When choosing the right formula for your baby, knowing what ingredients are in the formula and how they will impact your baby is essential.
The HiPP formula contains six essential ingredients: omega 3 & 6 LCPs, organic grass-fed cow milk, oligosaccharides from lactose, prebiotics, and probiotics. The HiPP Baby formula contains prebiotics and probiotics to promote a healthy digestive system. Prebiotics are a type of fiber that encourage the growth of good bacteria in the gut. Probiotics are live microorganisms that help to keep the digestive system balanced.
Let’s take a closer look at each one.
Omega 3 & 6 LCPs
DHA and ALA are two types of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCP). They are essential nutrients for your baby’s brain and eye development. DHA is found in breast milk and is added to infant formulas to ensure babies get enough of this critical nutrient. ALA is another essential fatty acid found in vegetables, nuts, and seeds. It is also added to infant formulas to ensure babies get enough of this nutrient for proper development.
Organic Grass-fed Cow Milk
The milk used in the HiPP formula comes from organic grass-fed cows. Grass-fed cows have a diet that consists primarily of grass and other plants. This diet results in milk that contains higher levels of CLA (conjugated linoleic acid), a type of fat that has been shown to have several health benefits.
Oligosaccharides Obtained from Lactose
Oligosaccharides are carbohydrates that are found naturally in breast milk. They are added to the HiPP formula because they have been shown to help reduce the risk of developing allergies.
Lactose is a type of sugar found in milk, and oligosaccharides are a type of carbohydrate. HiPP uses lactose broken down into oligosaccharides to create their baby formula. This provides several benefits for infants. First, it makes the formula easier to digest.
Second, it provides nutrients that help to support the growth of healthy bacteria in the gut. Third, it helps to protect against infections. Oligosaccharides are a type of prebiotic, which means they help to promote the growth of beneficial bacteria in the gut. HiPP’s use of lactose-derived oligosaccharides makes their baby formula easier to digest and helps to support the development of healthy bacteria in the gut.
Prebiotics
Prebiotics are dietary fiber that the human body cannot digest. However, they can be fermented by gut bacteria. Prebiotics are added to the HiPP formula because they help promote the growth of healthy gut bacteria in your baby’s digestive system.
Probiotics
Probiotics are live microorganisms that are similar to the beneficial bacteria that live in your gut. They are added to the HiPP formula because they have been shown to help reduce the risk of diarrhea and other gastrointestinal problems.
Together, these two ingredients keep all HiPP Formula easy to digest and prevent constipation. In addition, they help to support a healthy immune system and reduce the risk of allergies. These ingredients play an essential role in your baby’s development and overall health.
