Exclamation Organic formula concerns

How many of you are feeding organic formula to your babes? I want to start feeding organic formula to my baby girl as I'm afraid of the hormone fed cows and genetically enginneered ingredients that go into the commercial brands. The commercial brands seem to have better R&D and more advanced formula (eg. added taurine, DHA etc.), are there any organic formulae in the market that are similar?

I'm also afraid if anything goes wrong with the organic brands it will be hard to find out as there is little or no publicity on these small brands. Is there any way to find out past problems with organic brands and which ones are most popular and well researched?

Many

Hi

I give to my daughter ONLY organic food and formula (Hipp or Babynat).
I also want to avoid GMO, pesticide, antibiotic in cow milk, hormones....

If there not so much of advertisement for organic food, I think is because the market is new Hong Kong.

hi Gaelle,

Have you given non-organic formula to your baby? Do you see a difference, compared to other kids at the same age?

organic brands from US & UK & europe are under quite stringent control. so i personally believe they are a lot safer than the regular brands. i've also only given my daughter organic milk (cow or goat). i've heard a lot of stories how when the baby drink formula they have constipation & their poo is hard. luckily, when Jas started with Hipp at 12 mths, she had no problems.
