How to Make Baby Organic Formula at Home

It is an unquestioned fact that breast milk is better for your infant. If for several cause, you are incapable to breastfeed, or you choose not to breastfeed, there are different options you can select instead of going immediately for ready-made dry baby formula. Though it may take a little extra time out of your filled Parental Schedules, you can make baby organic formula at home. You can choose a milk-based formula which is the most popular form of homemade recipes.

One of the Breast milks components is rich in whey, niacin, vitamin C, lactose and unsaturated fatty acids. This milk-based formula takes all of those components into consideration in preparation. Adding jelly to the recipe will help with any constipation issues that may grow with a homemade recipe and will give digestion a boost. When applying a milk recipe, it is essential to purchase an organically based product, clear of impurities and additives from cows which are grass fed. This will ensure that your baby is getting its foremost nutrition. You can also find natural baby resource around the markets. If you are unable to find organic milk in your place, the next best option is to get whole milk at the store. Make sure that it is unblended. In order to restore the enzymes that will be lacking in the whole milk, you will want to add piima or kefir culture to the milk.

Here’s a sample recipe of a baby organic formula from Radiant Life Catalog:

2 cups whole milk, preferably unprocessed milk from pasture-fed cows
1/4 cup homemade liquid whey (See recipe for whey, below) Note: Do NOT use whey from making cheese–it will cause the formula to curdle. Use only homemade whey made from yoghurt, kefir or separated raw milk.
4 tablespoons lactose*
1/4 teaspoon bifidobacterium infantis**
2 or more tablespoons good quality cream (not ultra pasteurized), more if you are using milk from Holstein cows
1 teaspoon regular dose cod liver oil or 1/2 teaspoon high-vitamin cod liver oil*
1 teaspoon expeller-expressed sunflower oil*
1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil*
2 teaspoons coconut oil*
2 teaspoons Frontier brand nutritional yeast flakes*
