If your baby's having a hard time with his or her feedings, it's probably because his or her little digestive system is still developing and may need some additional TLC. Fortunately, there's an Enfamil® formula designed to help meet these feeding needs.
For babies with mild feeding concerns like fussiness, gas, or spit up, and for babies who may be experiencing cow's milk and food protein allergies, Enfamil offers a selection of formulas to meet these needs. These formulas are formulated with Enfamil's blend of DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and ARA (arachidonic acid), nutrients found in breast milk that help with the development of a baby's brain, eyes, and immune system. Whatever your baby's feeding need, there's an Enfamil formula to help.
A Specialty Formula for Babies with Milk Protein Allergy
If your baby experiences excessive crying, or appears colicky, this may be due to the regular infant formula they are drinking. Your baby could have an allergy or sensitivity to the cow's milk protein found in that formula. Nutramigen® has been specially designed to ease a baby's allergy towards a cow's milk-based formula, so your baby can grow strong on the outside--and feel good on the inside. Ask your baby's doctor if this formula is right for your baby.
The Story Behind the Allergy
What causes a milk protein allergy or sensitivity? A baby's intestine is naturally immature at birth. As your baby feeds, whole proteins are digested and absorbed into the intestine. But occasionally, larger proteins can slip through the immature intestinal barrier.
In infants with a cow's milk protein allergy, these proteins are misrecognized as a foreign body, or antigen, which leads to an immune response, eventually causing the intestine to become inflamed. Prolonged inflammation allows for an increased transfer of antigens, causing more inflammation and discomfort for a baby.
Effectively Manages Colic**, Fast
Formulas like this one, designed for infants with cow's milk protein allergy, use whole proteins that are extensively broken down to reduce the allergen exposure and avoid an allergic response. A hypoallergenic formula, Nutramigen is clinically proven* to manage colic** fast, often within 48 hours. Nutritionally balanced, it is also lactose-free.
