About Lebenswert Stage 2
Lebenswert Stage 2 Organic Follow-On Infant Milk Formula is a complete alternative to breast milk and can be used as a breast milk replacement or meal supplement for babies aged six months and above. This formula is the natural transition from Lebenswert Stage 1, or can be introduced to babies who are weaning or who have never previously tried baby formula before.
Lebenswert Stage 2 is based on organic skim milk and contains organic maltodextrin which acts as a flavor and consistency balancing enhancer. Maltodextrin is a complex carbohydrate that is easy to digest and releases energy slower than other simple carbohydrates. Lebenswert Stage 2 ensures that your baby receives all the vitamins and minerals required for early stage growth and development, all the while avoiding unpleasant synthetic ingredients. This formula contains no color additives and no man made flavor enhancers.
This Lebenswert formula is made with only organic ingredients that have achieved Bioland organic certification, Germany's biggest food association. This Bioland certification means that Lebenswert formulas are based on organic cow's skim milk from biodynamic pastures that are exceptionally animal friendly and graze in fields that are free of pesticides, fertilizers, hormones, and antibiotics. Bioland certifications are of an even higher standard than European Union organic standards - which are already more regulated than comparable organic certifications in the United States. Lebenswert Stage 2 contains organic whey powder, organic vegetable oils, and is entirely soy-free, gluten free, and GMO-free.
Organic Life Start works directly with Lebenswert in Germany to deliver fresh baby formula that has a long expiration date of six months or more. Each shelf-stable box of Lebenswert Stage 2 contains 500 grams (17.6 oz) of formula powder, which yields approximately 120 fluid ounces of prepared formula.
