Aller au contenu OUR APPLICATIONS Home | Applications | Infant Nutrition Infant nutrition The World Health Organisation recommends exclusive breast feeding for the first 6 months and Lactalis Ingredients fully supports this recommendation. For baby, breast milk is the best nutrition, the most adapted to its needs. Before using infant formula instead of breast milk, consumers should first speak to a health care professional. Babies have specific needs throughout their development: nutrients, vitamins, proteins, fats and energy. Human breast milk is able to provide every single component that a baby requires and has the wonderful ability to evolve as the baby grows. Infant formula compositions need to be as close as possible to that of breast milk at every stage of a baby’s development. Each formula, from first-age to follow on to growing up milks, thus tries to integrate most of the major components naturally present in breast milk to ensure healthy baby growth. Market overview The global demand for infant formula is expected to grow by 1,2% within the next five years (Source : Global Data 2020). Studies indicate that today’s parents are more knowledgeable about their babies’ nutritional needs and seek healthy products that will enhance their infant’s development from birth through the toddler years. It’s therefore crucial to create formulations that will help babies to properly develop and grow. Infant milk formula is driven by innovations that helps best meet babies’ needs. Specific ingredients, such as Lactoferrin, alpha lactalbumine, organic dairy ingredients, goat milk, milk fat are new ingredients with real nutritional benefits that help diversify and add value to infant milk formulas.
