How to choose good formula for babies
(1) Look at the ingredients. Whether it is canned or bagged milk powder, there should be written instructions on its packaging including ingredients, nutritional list, performance, applicable objects, and consumption methods.
(2) Check the packaging. The packaging is complete and labeled with the trademark, manufacturer name, production date, batch number, shelf life, etc. The shelf life of packaging made of different materials varies. China's regulations stipulate that the storage period for milk powder packaged in sealed nitrogen filled tin cans is two years, while for non nitrogen filled packaging it is one year; Bottled for 9 months, bagged for 6 months.
(3) Distinguish colors. The color is milky white or milky yellow, with uniform color and luster.
(4) Touch the texture. The milk powder in plastic bags feels soft and loose when pinched by hand, with a slight rustling sound; When the glass jar of milk powder is slowly inverted and shaken slightly, there is no adhesive milk powder at the bottom of the jar.
(5) Listen to the sound. Although the milk powder stored in the tin can cannot be seen, its sound can be heard. Shaking the tin can will make a "rustling" sound, which is clear.
(6) Adjustment test. Take a spoonful of milk powder and place it in a glass. Mix it thoroughly with boiling water and let it stand for 5 minutes. The water and milk powder will dissolve together without settling.
The choice of baby formula is not based on the baby's weight, but on the quality and composition of the formula. The formula milk powder sold on the market now is more suitable for babies to drink, regardless of which brand it is. When choosing milk powder, one should also consider their own financial situation and the baby's taste.
