Goat Milk Baby Formula and Food

As a parent, we know you take the utmost pleasure in giving your little one the best start to life. We’re sure you’ve experienced the stress of finding the perfect crib and the very best pram, but as far as nutrition goes – there’s so much information to look into. Why not let us take the worry off your hands?

Is goat milk healthy?

The healthiest option for your baby is to consume a source of dairy that’s not only similar to breast milk but offers the essential vitamins and minerals needed to grow and thrive in the early years. Our goat milk formula ticks both of these boxes.

Let’s talk about science! When it comes to the molecular composition, goat milk is one of the only sources of dairy with a similar makeup to human milk as they share small protein and fat molecules which are easier for little tums to digest and absorb.

But what kind of nutrients are found in goat milk? Let’s take a closer look at the essential vitamins and minerals in our very own Bubs Goat Milk Toddler Nutritional Drink.

Calcium

We’re constantly encouraged to feed our little one’s dairy to meet their calcium needs and kickstart their growing little bodies. Calcium is essential in the building and strengthening of strong bones, muscle and nerve function, all of which are essential right from the start of your child’s life. Goat milk naturally contains more calcium than cow milk.

Vitamin D

Vitamin D works hand-in-hand with calcium to support healthy bones, but also to speed up the absorption rate of the calcium itself. Goat milk is packed with vitamin D, even more than cow milk, so both the vitamin D and calcium can get to work right away and help ease any knocks and bumps from playtime.

Iron

Babies are born with all the iron stores they need in their early months of life. However, as they begin to grow, their iron levels can drop slightly. Iron is essential to the development of your little one as it helps to transport oxygen all around the body. Goat milk is high in iron.

Folic Acid

Folic acid gets to work helping to produce new cells, which makes it a necessary vitamin for young children. While goat milk doesn’t contain high amounts of folic acid itself, Bubs goat milk formula includes a blend of folic acid to boost these vitamins and ensure your bub has the nutrients they need to flourish.

Potassium

Potassium is essential for babies and toddlers as it aids in the development of muscle function, as well as maintaining healthy blood pressure. Goat milk is a superior source of potassium, containing almost one and a half times that of cow milk.

A2 Protein

Goat milk is a power-packed beverage full of the nutrients needed for optimal growth, energy production and helping little bodies function properly. Goat milk has a unique structure of medium chain fatty acids in addition to A2 goat protein. This makes it closer to human milk than cow milk is, which means, it is digested easily and can provide a healthy alternative to babies who might react uncomfortably to the standard cow milk products.
