from birth to 6
months
Fabimilk
nutrition1
is
a closely controlled high tech product.
All
products are in conformity with EU regulations.
When
breastfeeding is not possible or chosen, Fabimilk
nutrition1
is a
nourishing substitute.
It contains all vitamins and minerals known to be
essential for the healthy development of the infant and is based
on the same formula as mother’s milk.
Growth
rate is more rapid during infancy than at any other time of life.
Birth weight may double in the first 6 months.
The ideal food for the newborn baby is his mother’s milk
which has a unique immunological property.
Breastfeeding also provides the close, reassuring physical
contact essential for the baby’s emotional well-being.
However,
if breastfeeding is not possible or has to be discontinued,
Fabimilk nutrition1’s
adapted formula, similar to mother’s milk, is able to meet the
nutritional needs of the infant during the first six months of
life.
A
century ago newborn babies who couldn’t be breastfed rarely
survived. Today,
although breastfeeding is still the best option, infant formula is
now a close enough substitute for babies to flourish.
The high quality of Fabimilk
nutrition1 is safeguarded by
compliance with the French authorities’ nutritional
requirements, EU regulations and by strict quality control whereby
the manufacturer must analyse each batch of formula for the
required nutrients and test samples for stability during the shelf
life of the product.
Fabimilk
nutrition1 is
an adapted formula of similar composition to breast milk and is
designed to nourish healthy infants who have no special
nutritional requirements. The
formula provides sufficient calories, proteins, vitamins and
minerals for the healthy physical development of the baby.

and ARA compete for incorporation into membrane as well as
conversion to Eicosanoids. When derived
from EPA, eicosanoids have Anti- Thrombotic & Anti-Atherogenic
effects.

Energy
Energy
requirements are highest during the rapid growth period of the
first six months of life.
Fabimilk
nutrition1’s
energy distribution is similar to that of breast milk ensuring
optimal growth.
Protein
Fabimilk
nutrition1’s
ratio of protein/casein, like that of mother’s milk, ensures
rapid gastric emptying and the intake of essential amino acid.
Fat
Fat provides more than half the calories in breast milk and
this applies to modern infant formulas.
The blend of vegetable fat ensures adequate levels of
polyunsaturated fatty acids for brain and eye development and aids
fat digestion.
Carbohydrates
Fabimilk
nutrition1’s high
lactose content emulates breast milk and ensures good absorption
of calcium contributing to formation of cerebrosids. Carbohydrates
are exclusively lactose to make easier intestinal transit.
Vitamins
and Minerals
Fabimilk nutrition1
contains
lesser amounts of macro minerals like sodium, potassium, chloride
(Na, K, Cl) than cow’s milk.
This reduces the renal solute load and helps prevent water
balance disorders.
Calcium
Fabimilk nutrition1
provides 100% of the recommended calcium intake.
The easily digestible fat and high vitamin D content aids good
absorption of calcium and maximum bone mineralization.
