Goat First Infant Milk

Whole Goat’s Milk is the first ingredient in our goat formula recipes and is sourced from European goat farms. Our use of whole goat’s milk provides a naturally creamy taste to our recipe and crucially means we can use reduced levels of vegetable oils, which typically form 100% of the fat content in other formula brands. Goats milk is viewed as being a more naturally gentle milk due to its qualities that make it more easily digestible and it contains naturally occurring prebiotics that promote a healthy gut microbiome.

We uniquely add whey protein from goats milk to adjust the naturally high casein content of goat’s milk, achieving a whey to casein ratio of approximately 60:40. Goat's milk contains predominantly A2 beta-casein protein (which is similar to breastmilk) and smaller fat globules, making it easier for some babies to digest compared to cow's milk. Softer curds smoothly and quickly pass through baby's digestive system and studies have shown how the frequency and consistency of infant goat formula poops were closer to breast milk.

Lactose is the most common carbohydrate (or ‘sugar’) found in breastmilk and provides energy to your little one. Lactose also promotes the growth of beneficial bacteria in the gut and aids in the absorption of essential minerals like calcium.Lactose is the most common carbohydrate (or ‘sugar’) found in breastmilk and provides energy to your little one.

Alongside the natural milk fat from our whole milk, we use a blend of infant-grade coconut, sunflower and rapeseed oil for our fat content. These oils are necessary to provide essential fatty acids (such as linoleic and alpha-linolenic acid) which are present in human milk and are the precursors for your baby to make long chain polyunsaturated fats like DHA. We can’t rely exclusively on our whole cow’s milk fats as these fatty acids are not present in sufficient quantities. We never include Palm Oil or Soybean Oil in our formula.

DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) is a type of omega-3 fatty acid which supports healthy brain and eye development. It is naturally found in breastmilk and plays a crucial role in the growth and function of an infant's nervous system. We source our DHA from sustainably farmed marine algae.

GOS (galacto-oligosaccharides) are dietary fibers added to infant formula to mimic the effects of prebiotics found in breastmilk. They promote the growth of beneficial gut bacteria which can lead to a healthier digestive system, softer stools, and potential immune system benefits.
