Lebenswert Organic Infant Formula Stage 2

The primary distinction between Lebenswert Stage 2 and Stage 1 lies in the presence of maltodextrin and starch. Lebenswert Stage 1 is free from maltodextrin and starch, opting instead for organic lactose to enhance its nutritional profile. Conversely, Lebenswert Stage 2 does contain maltodextrin and starch. Both formulations are exceptional, and the choice between them ultimately hinges on personal preference.

Lebenswert Stage 2 Organic is designed for children aged 6 months and older. As a follow-up formula to Lebenswert Stage 1, it complements a mixed diet for your child. Crafted from natural, easily-digestible organic cow's milk, this formula is gentle on sensitive tummies. It bears the Bioland certification, ensuring that all its components are 100% organic, aligning with the high standards set by other Lebenswert products.

Absolutely! All Lebenswert formulas are crafted with enriching organic skim milk and incorporate the long-chain fatty acid Omega 6 (DHA), sourced from fish oil. Scientifically proven to be crucial for the development of healthy brains in infants, this formula is also fortified with essential vitamins: A, C, D, E, K, and B-complex.

Lebenswert Stage 2 is formulated to be gentle on the digestive system, free from additives that can challenge little tummies, such as starch, soy, and corn syrup. Crafted exclusively from natural, organic cow's milk and inspired by real breastmilk, Lebenswert Stage 2 offers a wholesome alternative. If your baby has experienced discomfort with conventional formulas, transitioning to Lebenswert Stage 2 might provide a more suitable option.

Certainly! Lebenswert Stage 2 supports the development of a robust and healthy immune system in your baby, aiding in the defense against infections. Enriched with essential vitamins A, C, D, K, E, and B-complex, this formula delivers a well-balanced combination of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. Importantly, Lebenswert is crafted without added sugars, known to compromise the immune system.

We recommend opting for our specially crafted Starter Kits, designed to supply you with formula for approximately two months. Typically, babies eat according to their hunger cues and stop when satisfied. Appetites differ among infants, and their nutritional requirements evolve daily and monthly. By adhering to the feeding guidelines provided on each box and regularly consulting with your baby's doctor, you can ensure your baby stays on a healthy track. While much depends on your baby's appetite, the following figures can serve as a general reference: On average, babies require around 2.5 ounces of formula per pound per day. For instance, an average 8-pound newborn would typically need about 20 ounces of formula per day.

This is an essential question. Correct preparation is vital to prevent any potential harm to your baby. Rest assured, the formula preparation process is simple and efficient.

1. Start by cleaning the bottle, teat, and ring in boiling water for 3 to 5 minutes before use.
2. Boil fresh water before each feeding and let it cool down to approximately 50°C / 122°F.
3. Pour about half of the boiled water into the cleaned bottle.
4. Use the provided measuring spoon and add the specified number of scoops according to the instructions. Fill each spoon evenly, without heaping.
5. Close the bottle securely, shake until the powder completely dissolves. Then, add the remaining water and give it a light shake to ensure an even mixture.
6. Allow the formula to cool down (you can place the bottle under cold running water or in the refrigerator) to around 37°C / 98.6°F before feeding. To avoid burns, test the formula on your forearm to check the temperature before feeding. Serve immediately.

Extra Tips:

Always use the scoop provided in the package.

Do not alter the formula by adding extra water or scoops; follow the recommended measurements precisely. Avoid adding anything else to the milk feeds.

Maintain hygiene by preparing feeds freshly; avoid advance preparation. Use feeds immediately and discard any leftovers after the feeding.

Bottles at room temperature should be consumed within 2 hours. Bottles stored in a cooler with ice or a cold pack should be used within 4 hours. Bottles kept in the fridge should be consumed within 24 hours.

Never heat feed in a microwave, as it may create hot spots that could scald.

Use open formulas within 21 days, and sealed formulas should be consumed before the expiration date on the box.

When comparing baby formulas, it's essential to delve deeper into the details. While many formulas may seem similar initially, a closer examination reveals that some of the world's finest baby formulas originate from Europe.

✅  EUROPEAN FORMULA

• Natural Ingredients: European formulas closely mimic breast milk with a focus on natural components, including organic oils and lactose. 
• Stringent Standards: The European Commission maintains rigorous criteria for the ingredients used in infant formula. 
• High-Quality: Nutritionists have extensively tested and confirmed the superiority of European formulas for your infants. 
• Environmental Stewardship: Family-owned companies in Europe prioritize environmental conservation and show respect for farmers and animals.

❌ AMERICAN FORMULA

• Artificial Ingredients: American formulas often contain additives like corn syrup, chemicals, sugars, and GMOs, which can potentially be detrimental to your infant's health. 
• Lower Approval Standards: The FDA has more generalized criteria for what's considered suitable in infant formula. 
• Lower Overall Quality: Compared to European formulas, American formulas generally exhibit lower quality. 
• Corporate Influence: Major companies that produce American baby formulas are primarily profit-driven pharmaceutical companies.

This comparison underscores the differences between European and American formulas, allowing you to make an informed choice for your baby's nutrition.

Moving to the next stage is advisable as a child grows and develops. Nutritional requirements change with age, making it important to adjust accordingly.

To ensure that a baby receives all the necessary nutrients for healthy growth and development, consider transitioning to the formula stage that corresponds to their age. European Formula manufacturers have dedicated years to refining these formulations, ensuring that each stage meets a baby's evolving dietary needs.
