Aptamil Comfort Milk 800g

Description

Aptamil Comfort 800g is a specialized, nutritionally complete infant milk formula developed by Nutricia. It is technically categorized as a Food for Special Medical Purposes (FSMP) and is formulated for the dietary management of infantile colic and constipation . It is suitable as the sole source of nutrition from birth to 6 months, and as part of a balanced weaning diet from 6 to 12 months.

• • Partially Hydrolysed Protein: Contains 100% whey protein that has been broken down into smaller pieces. This makes it significantly gentler and easier to digest for infants with sensitive digestive tracks, helping reduce discomfort caused by trapped gas and bloating.  
  • Reduced Lactose: Formulated with less lactose than standard infant milks to minimize abdominal discomfort or flatulence linked to temporary lactose sensitivity.  
  • Tailored Fat Blend (Beta-Palmitate): Includes a modified vegetable oil blend rich in beta-palmitate. This structured triglyceride mimics structural fat components found in breast milk, facilitating better fat and calcium absorption while helping prevent hard, dry stools.
  • Prebiotic Oligosaccharides (GOS/FOS 9:1): Contains a patented blend of Galacto- and Fructo-oligosaccharides. These prebiotic fibers promote a healthy gut microbiota, increase stool frequency, and soften stools to reduce colic-related crying.  

• Texture Notice: Due to its specialized formulation (including ingredients like starch), the prepared formula has a slightly thicker consistency than standard infant milks. You may need to use a fast-flow or variable-flow teat to ensure smooth feeding.
• Medical Supervision: Because it is an FSMP designed for medical conditions, it must be used under medical supervision . Always consult a doctor or healthcare professional before switching from a standard formula.
• Stool Appearance: The presence of partially hydrolysed protein can cause infants to pass looser, greenish-colored stools, which is completely normal for babies fed on this type of comfort formula.
