HiPP Bio Combiotic stage 3 Dutch version is a nutritionally complete, whey based, gentle infant formula that is specially formulated using the finest organic milk. This formula is suitable from 12 months onwards for babies that are not being breastfed or to complement breastfeeding. It contains lactose as its only carbohydrate and contains natural lactic acid cultures that are similar to breast milk.
It has all the ingredients your baby needs to grow strong and healthy such as, iron, Vitamins A, C, and D. Vitamin D is essential for calcium absorption and bone growth and omega 3 (ALA), which is found in breast milk, helps babies with brain and eye development. It also contains prebiotic fibers, which are modeled on breast milk, that are derived from lactose and support the healthy intestinal flora. HiPP Bio Combiotic stage 3 Dutch version does not contain any gluten or starch, allowing for easier digestion in the early stages of development.
