When Similac had their ecoli breakout my baby consumed some of the cans. We were notified by Similac that they sent us the cans in the mail and we gave them to supplement nursing when I wasn't producing enough for him. We hadn't settled on a brand and I really wanted organic but Similac sent these cans and I didn't plan on doing formula so early. I didn't expect to have supply issues. But ultimately I was stressed and my body couldn't produce enough so I had to figure something out. One of my friends gave her son the original can but I was worried about my son's sensitivity because he was having many bowel issues after the Similac episode. His bowels still aren't normal. But this formula is so much better. He's growing great and he drinks this stuff down. I was looking into the German brands but was worried about supply issues with shipping from another country but I do think that's the best other than this stuff. This would be id guess the second best formula in the world. And that is good for me. I think we're all on the edge of our seats waiting to see if we can't get formula. But I noticed my stores have no formula. The only cans Ive seen in store is this brand in the red can and one other can of Similac nobody uses. But that worried me that all brands were gone except two and they were short on supply of those as well. The shelves have been bare for months. I've never seen anything like it. I'm an extreme couponer so I'm in store alot and Ive watched the supply issues with all products but formula shortage is scary because people will try to make their own formula and make their babies sick not meaning to. So please research what's best for your baby. This was our choice and I'm happy with my regular shipment every two weeks automatically two of these cans are at my doorstep. Love it! Thanks for a great product and reliability during crazy formula shortage. Since switching to Earth's best we haven't run out of formula at all. I feel confident that I will not get any notifications saying they are out of stock any time soon. Can't say that about the grocery store when the shelves of baby stuff is bare. I don't know if anyone else has this issue but we've been getting a lot of bad baby food from the grocery store and the shelves are empty days before but stocked up with bad product. This is ridiculous! Read more
My son went through seven different formulas before we tried this one, and I’m so glad we did. The Reduced Lactose Powder Formula with Iron, Omega-3 DHA, and Omega-6 ARA has been a total game changer. It’s gentle on his stomach, no more gas or fussiness, and he actually enjoys drinking it. I’ve noticed he’s more comfortable and gaining weight steadily. The large 32 oz value container is a great bonus too — it lasts longer and is worth the price. Highly recommend for babies with sensitive tummies or lactose issues! Read more
We went through two kinds of formula for our LO (he had to be supplemented in the hospital while we were working on BF), and we tried Enfamil and Similac. He would drink them, but he was always gassy and he would spit up frequently. One day I tasted the Enfamil, and let me just say it was the single most disgusting thing I have ever tried!! So in addition to the fact that infants should not have cow's milk (they lack the enzymes needed to digest lactose), my son had also had to suffer that disgusting swill. I immediately tried finding alternatives, and since he was, by that time, exclusively BF, I had some time to do research. I settled on this brand as it was the same as his food (which he loved), and when it came time to start cutting out BF sessions, this was ready to go. He was less gassy, spit up less frequently, I knew he was getting the extra nutrition that he needed, and it tasted better (more like actual milk but low lactose!). We have used it now through the entire Bf/weaning months, and he is now 1 year-old. He still drinks his formula occasionally, and he still likes it. I would whole-heartedly recommend this formula to breastfeeding mothers (who occasionally need bottles), formula-feeding mothers, and mothers who are weaning. It is a great, organic, non-GMO, low lactose, enriched formula, and we love it!!!! Thank you Earth's Best for doing things right!! Read more
My son wasn’t taking to any brand of milk from Enfamil to Kendamil. It was always something where his body would just reject every brand. And after 4 long months I tried earths best. This is the one formula that hasn’t given me an issue. I was skeptical at first because it was making him very constipated but I still kept him on it and gave him time to adjust. As far as the bubbles i bought MAM bottles and those are the only bottles that I’ll use with this formula. I highly recommend if you’re baby has a very sensitive tummy. Read more
My Son has bad gas issues with formula. He was EBF for the first 10 months of his life and this was the only formula out of many that did not change his poo, cause him constipation, or fussiness... We used generic bottles with breastmilk before and with formula we had to switch to Dr brown to rid of the horrible bubbles that formula gets when mixed, But all in all, this is our best bet. We have tried around 6 other brands and none are as close to the "real liquid gold" on his system as this. None of the typical formula side effects and no bad baby odor after a few days like the other brands... Probably the lack of chemical and unnatural ingredients. WE LOVE THIS PRODUCT. Yes we tried EARTHS BEST ORGANIC the regular one , and there is hands down a BIG difference. If you have a gassy baby, get THIS ONE, not the regular one. Also this seller has the BEST price. I have shopped around locally and online and this is the best price by far! Read more
