Can I store organic follow-on formula in the freezer?
Freezing follow-on formula is generally not recommended because it can alter the composition of the powder and potentially have a negative effect on its quality and safety. Freezing the powder can lead to an uneven consistency and consequently, it may not mix well even after thawing and shaking. Also, freezing can affect the stability of certain vitamins and nutrients in the it, potentially reducing their effectiveness. Over time, these changes can lead to a decrease in nutritional quality.


FAQ'S

No, in most cases, goat milk is not suitable for babies with a diagnosed cow milk protein allergy. This is because the primary allergen in cow milk, the casein protein, is about 90 percent identical to the protein found in goat milk. Consequently, your child may experience similar allergic reactions. If you suspect an allergy or have doubts about making the switch, always consult your midwife or pediatrician first.

Many parents consciously make the switch to goat milk because they are looking for a natural and pure alternative to traditional cow milk formula. Goat milk naturally has a mild and creamy taste that babies find very appealing. Pure Goat Company uses organic whole goat milk, complemented with organic lactose, plant-based oils, GOS fibers, and essential vitamins and minerals. While breastfeeding is always the first and best choice, organic goat milk formula provides a safe and high-quality alternative.

Switching from cow milk to goat milk is usually very smooth due to its mild flavor. However, it is best to introduce the new formula gradually. Start by mixing a small amount of goat milk formula into the current formula and slowly increase the proportion over time. Monitor your baby’s reaction and digestion closely during the transition. For personal guidance, you can always contact your midwife or our customer service team.
