About HiPP German HA Stage 2
HiPP HA German Hydrolyzed Stage 2 Combiotic Follow-On Formula is tailor made to help babies who suffer from sensitivity to cow's milk protein, such as skin problems, hay fever-like symptoms, and digestion problems caused by ingredients in other baby formulas. HiPP HA German Stage 2 is suitable for babies aged six months and older, and can be used on its own as a breast milk substitute, or as a replacement to breast feeding.
This formula is similar to other hypoallergenic formulas. How is this formula made to by hydrolyzed? HiPP HA Stage 2 contains long chain milk proteins that have been hydrolyzed into smaller pieces, excluding casein from the cow's milk. Smaller whey protein is easier to digest, and therefore has a lower risk of adverse reactions to allergenic ingredients found naturally in milk. While the hydrolysis process makes milk less viscous, the consistency of this formula is less runny in comparison to other hydrolyzed formulas, even without the use of starch. Because HiPP HA Stage 2 is based on cow's milk, it is rich with lactose in the same way that breast milk is.
This all natural formula has naturally occurring omega-e and omega-6 long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids, including AA and DHA, which are essential in the development of brain and eye tissue. Similar to natural breast milk, HiPP HA Stage 2 also contains probiotics and prebiotics, which helps develop a baby's gut microbiome.
HiPP HA German Stage 2 is free of any soy, corn syrup, sugar, GMO's, artificial sweeteners, or synthetic preservatives. This formula is a natural transition from HiPP HA German Stage 1 or HiPP HA German Stage PRE.
Organic Life Start works directly with HiPP in Germany to deliver fresh baby formula that has a long expiration date of six months or more. Each shelf-stable box of HiPP HA German Stage 2 contains 600 grams (21.2 oz) of formula powder, which yields approximately 130 fluid ounces of prepared formula.
Why is this formula not organic? HiPP HA German Stage 2 contains hydrolyzed milk proteins, which cannot be certified as organic because they aren't available in organic form. All other ingredients in HiPP HA German Stage 1 are organic.
Important note: HiPP HA German Stage 2 should not be used as a medical treatment. HiPP HA German Stage 2 is a specialty formula that is designed to be gentler than other formulas but may not be suitable for babies diagnosed with a protein allergy. Please discuss any of your baby's medical conditions with your pediatrician.
