SMA Soya Infant Baby Milk Formula, From Birth, 800g (Pack Of 1)

Product Information

Pea protein milk could be a good option to substitute soya milk, but unfortunately the brands available at the moment in the UK are too high in salt. After 12 months, babies can start drinking commercial plant milks. If the baby is still breastfed, they do not need any other milk – it is better to give them more iron-rich solid foods in combination with breastmilk. SMA Wysoy is also suitable for babies with galactokinase deficiency, galactosaemia and for sucrose intolerance. If you think that your baby might be cow's milk intolerant, then it is important that you consult your GP. You should also consult a Healthcare Professional if your baby is on a mixed diet of SMA Wysoy Formula and solid foods, to ensure your baby's diet is nutritionally balanced.

There is no requirement for full Amber Drug Guidance. Generic Amber Level 1 Drug Guidance detailing responsibilities and information sources is available here Almond milk: Look for brands with a high almond percentage (most only contain 2% – this is equivalent to 2 almonds per glass!). For example: Innocent Almond Drink, which is fortified with calcium from seaweeds, is very low in sugar and salt, but high in unsaturated fats, protein and vitamin E. For toddlers who are not eating a good variety of solid foods, who have low appetite or who are experiencing poor weight gain, these are good options instead of regular soya milk: Approx.

Giving a baby any regular plant milk that can be bought in supermarkets (soya, almond, oat…) or a home-made formula (mixing regular plant milks with fruit and or vegetable juices) is very dangerous and almost always will lead to severe malnutrition and death.
