If you think that your baby might be cow's milk intolerant, then it is important that you consult your GP. You should also consult a Healthcare Professional if your baby is on a mixed diet of SMA Wysoy Formula and solid foods, to ensure your baby's diet is nutritionally balanced.

Soya milk continues to be the more nutritious option for most children, due to its higher protein content and because it also provides magnesium, iron, unsaturated fats, and B-vitamins including choline. Unless there is a good reason to avoid soya, it is advisable to offer children soya milk at least part of the time. Fortified soya yoghurts are a good alternative. As with milk, choose those yoghurts that are: 1) calcium fortified; 2) low in sugar (2-2.5g/100g or less) and 3) low in salt (0.1g/100g or less). Approx. Age of Baby: 4 - 8 weeks: Approx.

SMA® Wysoy® is a nutritionally complete soya infant formula for babies and young children with a cows' milk intolerance, when they are not being breastfed. SMA® Wysoy® can be used as the sole source of nutrition for formula-fed babies in the early months and can be mixed with foods once weaning has begun and your baby gets older. It is suitable for milk protein intolerance, lactose and sucrose intolerance, galactosaemia and galactokinase deficiency. Enriched with Omega 3 (DHA)*.

(approx.); Feeds in 24 Hours: 3 The World Health Organisation (WHO) has recommended that pregnant women and new mothers be informed on the benefits and superiority of breastfeeding – in particular the fact that it provides the best nutrition and protection from illness for babies. Mothers should be given guidance on the preparation for, and maintenance of, lactation, with special emphasis on the importance of a well-balanced diet both during pregnancy and after delivery. Unnecessary introduction of partial bottle-feeding or other foods and drinks should be discouraged since it will have a negative effect on breastfeeding. Similarly, mothers should be warned of the difficulty of reversing a decision not to breastfeed. Before advising a mother to use an infant formula, she should be advised of the social and financial implications of her decision: for example, if a baby is exclusively bottle-fed, more than one can (400 g) per week will be needed, so the family circumstances and costs should be kept in mind. Mothers should be reminded that breast milk is not only the best, but also the most economical food for babies. If a decision to use an infant formula is taken, it is important to give instructions on correct preparation methods, emphasising that unboiled water, unsterilised bottles or incorrect dilution can all lead to illness.
