As part of Team Mom, I recently was contacted about some helpful information for moms of infants that I'd like to share with you. Most of us already know that breast milk is best for babies, but for moms who either can't breastfeed or choose not to for various reason, formula is the staple of these babies' nourishment. Using store-brand formulas can save up to 50% off of brand-name prices.
According to Dr. Barbara Levine of Weill Cornell Medical College, Buying a heavily marketed, expensive brand-name formula from a big pharmaceutical company does not get your baby any closer to human breast milk than a store brand formula. Mothers can choose to supplement their breast milk with any formula because all formulas are regulated by the FDA and nutritionally equivalent.
Consumer Reports Best Baby Products, 10th Edition book cites the nutritional and monetary value of switching to store brands.
