Organic baby milk

Transparency is part of our corporate philosophy. That is why we are happy to explain the basic ingredients of our Löwenzahn Organics follow-on milk formula. We offer follow-on milk formula based on cow's milk and goat's milk – one variety based on skimmed milk powder and two based on whole milk powder.

All our Löwenzahn Organics follow-on baby milk powders contain all the important nutrients:

Age-appropriate milk proteins

Skimmed milk powder and whole milk powder contain important milk proteins for your baby. The protein content of our follow-on milk formula is up to 1.5 grams per 100 milliliters. In our Löwenzahn Organics follow-on baby milk, the ratio of casein to whey protein adapts to the age-related needs of babies. In our follow-on milk, the ratio of whey protein to casein is 50:50, and in our children's milk, it is 30:70. The exception is our follow-on baby milk based on goat's milk. It contains the ratio of whey protein to casein naturally found in goat's milk, which is 20:80.

Lactose for quickly available energy

Lactose is the main carbohydrate source in our Löwenzahn Organics Pre formula. Its simple structure allows babies to quickly convert lactose into energy.

Vitamins and minerals for important metabolic functions

Our Löwenzahn Organics follow-on milk formula also contains vitamins and minerals. For example, vitamin D supports the function of the immune system, and calcium supports children's growth and bone development (vitamin D is legally required in follow-on formula).
The human body cannot produce minerals at all and some vitamins in sufficient quantities on its own. That is why it is so important to add vitamins and minerals to follow-on baby milk.

Omega 3 fatty acid (DHA) and omega 6 fatty acid (ARA) in follow-on baby milk

DHA and ARA are contained in our follow-on baby milk in a 1:1 ratio. We have opted for a 1:1 mixture and thus add more ingredients than required by the EU. This is because, according to EU standards, DHA is mandatory, but the addition of ARA is voluntary.

DHA from algae oil instead of fish oil

Good to know: We use algae oil as a source of DHA in our Löwenzahn Organics milk formula. The use of fish oil as a source of omega-3 fatty acids such as DHA is widespread in the food industry. By extracting DHA from cultivated marine algae, we avoid the allergen that would otherwise be contained in baby milk powder. Furthermore, the fish smell and taste that would otherwise be present in baby milk are also avoided. One reason why our Löwenzahn Organics baby milk tastes so good. 

All our Löwenzahn Organics follow-on and children's follow-on baby milk powders contain all the important nutrients your baby needs for optimal development during the first 1,000 days. Our baby milk based on cow's milk from skimmed milk powder and whole milk powder, as well as our baby milk based on goat's milk from whole milk powder, each has some advantages. 

Whole milk powder contains all the important fats for energy

Fat is and remains an important source of energy. Whole milk powder in follow-on baby milk has an advantage in fat content compared to skimmed milk powder in follow-on baby milk. This is because while skimmed milk has its natural fats reduced, whole milk powder still contains all the fats. Thus, follow-on baby milk based on whole milk powder is less highly processed. However, whole milk powder is more expensive than skimmed milk powder. 

Addition of vegetable oils in follow-on baby milk from skimmed milk powder for more energy

Fat is an important source of energy. Since most of the fat is removed from follow-on skimmed milk powder, we have added valuable vegetable oils to our follow-on baby milk based on cow's milk. For vegetable oils, we chose selected sunflower, rapeseed, and oil palm. We exclusively use RSPO-certified organic palm oil. 

Without palm oil - baby milk from whole milk powder

Due to the fat content of whole milk, less additional vegetable oil is required in baby milk based on cow's milk and goat's milk from whole milk powder. Only sunflower and rapeseed oils are added. No highly processed vegetable oils such as palm oil need to be added. 

Easy to digest - follow-on baby milk based on goat's milk from whole milk powder

The proteins and fats in follow-on baby milk based on goat whole milk powder are structured differently compared to those in cow's milk. For example, goat's milk contains smaller "fat globules," which can be more easily digested by babies with a sensitive stomach. 

Even more nutrients - follow-on milk formula based on cow's milk from whole milk

The formulations of our follow-on and children's follow-on baby milk are based on current scientific findings. Our follow-on baby milk based on cow's milk from whole milk also contains prebiotic fiber Bio-FOS, the amino acid taurine, and nucleotides (building blocks of DNA).
