Newborns eat what milk powder is good, four tricks easily identify the authenticity of milk powder

Just born babies, the best choice is undoubtedly breastfeeding. If breastfeeding is not possible due to special reasons, selecting suitable formula becomes particularly important. Each baby’s constitution is different, and formula ingredients also have subtle differences, so the choice should prioritize the baby’s adaptability. Price is not the standard for measuring the quality of formula; the ideal choice is formula that suits the baby’s constitution, does not cause adverse reactions when consumed, and promotes the baby’s healthy growth. There is no need to blindly pursue brands or recommendations from others as formula suitable for other babies may not necessarily be suitable for one’s own child.
When choosing formula, pay attention to the following points: firstly, view advertising rationally and choose brands with good reputation and strong professionalism; secondly, among imported formula, there are significant differences between original and repackaged products due to differences in origin, raw materials, production processes, and standards; thirdly, the baby’s acceptance is the most important consideration, especially for early-stage formula which may have more additives and unpleasant taste; finally, price and quality do not always correlate, and price should not be the sole judging criterion.
Distinguishing between the authenticity of formula is also a key step. It can be identified by touch (genuine formula is delicate and makes a “squeaking” sound when rubbed), color (genuine formula is natural milky yellow), scent (genuine formula has a natural milk fragrance), taste (genuine formula is slightly sticky, without overpowering sweetness), and dissolution rate (genuine formula requires stirring to dissolve, while inferior formula dissolves rapidly or settles). Furthermore, beware of counterfeit products which often have crystalline appearance, unnatural color, and rapid dissolution.
When switching formula for the baby, be cautious. It should be done during a period when the baby is healthy and adaptable, generally recommended to wait until at least one year old. The process of switching formula should be gradual, observing the baby’s digestion status, avoiding introducing new complementary foods simultaneously, and avoiding formula changes during the baby’s illness or vaccination. Initially, the new formula can be slightly diluted, gradually adjusting to standard concentration once the baby adapts.
