Every mother wants to see her child healthy and happy, so she tries to give him all the best. The ideal food for a baby is breast milk. After all, the composition of milk is individual, and its formula is truly unique.
Unfortunately, breastfeeding is not always possible. What to do in this case? How to understand the variety of mixes and choose the one that would satisfy the needs of the baby?
Today we will talk about the NAS's infant formula.
A little about the manufacturer
Nestlé has been producing baby food for babies of all ages for over 145 years. Their products include: mixes "NAN", "Nestogen", porridge "Nestlé" and puree "Gerber".
For every period of a child's life, there is a product that is ideal for feeding a baby. Nestlé mixes undergo strict quality control, their manufacturing technologies have been tested by time.
Why not feed a newborn baby with cow's milk?
The answer is simple - it's all about the composition of the milk. Cow's milk contains twice as much protein as breast milk. The amount of minerals - salts, phosphorus and calcium - exceeds the permissible concentration for children three times. This composition is necessary for the rapid growth of the calf and is unacceptable for the development of the baby.
It is not worth using cow's milk even in diluted form, because the protein of cow's milk is not digested properly. Its accumulation leads to allergic reactions and digestive problems, colic. A child's immature kidneys cannot cope with excess nutrients. And low iron content increases the risk of anemia.
What is OPTIPRO protein?
Protein is one of the most important nutrients, a building block for a child's growth. No wonder they are called "the bricks of life." Correctly balanced protein supplied with food contributes to the development of the immune, digestive system, and uniform body weight gain.
Rational nutrition in the first 2 years of a child's life ensures his health for life.
The composition of milk mixtures "NAN" includes OPTIPRO. This is an optimized protein complex, which is contained only in NAN optipro infant formula. Thus, the baby gets enough "correct" protein, and the internal organs work without overload.
What else is included in the composition of baby food "NAS"?
The mixtures "NAN" are highly adapted, which means that their composition is as close as possible to the composition of breast milk. To this end, Nestlé introduced live bifidobacteria BL, DHA and ARA fatty acids, vitamins and minerals.
Bifidobacteria normalize digestion, colonize the intestines with "beneficial" bacteria. DHA and ARA are two special fatty acids that play a huge role in the development of immunity and contribute to the development of the child's brain and vision. It is not for nothing that adapted formulas are also called breast milk substitutes.
Types of mixtures NAN
The range of products is easy to understand, because each age has its own mixture.
