A Formula for Feeding Your Baby

Organic formulas don't have any particular advantages over conventional formulas, other than preference - and you will pay extra for these formulas. If your water supply is questionable or you worry about the water at your child's daycare, then you might want to opt for premixed formulas, which simply need to be poured into the bottle and heated. Regardless of which you choose, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends an iron-fortified version. An iron deficiency can cause anemia and motor and mental impairment. Other supplements to consider are DHA and ARA, two important fatty acids that are present in breast milk and help the brain, eyes and nervous system develop normally. These formulas are well worth the extra money they cost.
