About Infant formula, ABBOTT NUTRITION, SIMILAC, SENSITIVE, (LACTOSE FREE), powder, with ARA and DHA
This powdered infant formula, manufactured by Abbott Nutrition under the Similac brand, is a nutritionally complete food designed for babies with lactose sensitivities. As a lactose-free option, it is commonly used as a substitute for breast milk or other standard formulas when infants experience digestive discomfort or intolerance related to lactose.
Each 100g serving provides 520 calories, comprising 11.13g of protein, 55.67g of carbohydrates, and 28.14g of fat. Importantly, it includes ARA (arachidonic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), both omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids, respectively, which are crucial for brain and eye development. The formula contains no fiber.
While primarily intended for infant nutrition, it is not designed for weight loss or muscle building in adults. It is prepared by mixing the powder with water according to the manufacturer's instructions. Since it is specifically formulated for lactose-sensitive infants, it should only be used under the guidance of a healthcare professional.
