Soy-Based Infant Formula with DHA & ARA

For infants who may be allergic to cow's milk protein or are lactose-intolerant

Soy-based infant formulas provide a nutritionally complete alternative (including added benefits of DHA and ARA) for infants who may be sensitive to lactose.  The formulas are also designed to help infants who are recovering from diarrhea.
 
The Benefits of Soy

Due to sensitivity, milk-based formulas may not be the best option for many babies. Reactions to milk-based formulas include general fussiness during or after feeding, gas or bloating, or the development of colic. When these reactions occur you may be advised by your pediatrician to switch to soy formula. Soy formula may also be recommended to help your baby recover from a bout of diarrhea.

The Benefits of DHA & ARA

DHA and ARA occur naturally in breast milk and belong to a class of nutrients called lipids, or fats. Lipids are an essential part of a healthy diet because they are important structural components of vital organs, particularly an infant's brain and eyes.

Interest in DHA and ARA has increased following several scientific studies showing that infants fed formula supplemented with DHA and ARA gained intellectual and visual benefits not found in infants fed standard formulas without DHA and ARA.

In addition, recent research has also demonstrated that the benefits of DHA and ARA may extend beyond advantages in infant mental and visual development.
