Q&A: What is the Best Baby Formula?

Deciding to supplement with formula can be a challenging decision for many new parents, especially when it comes to selecting the right one. With so many options available, it can be tough to decipher what truly represents the best quality for your baby. This episode discusses the intricacies of choosing an infant formula that prioritizes high-quality ingredients, evaluating organic options, and avoiding corn syrup and seed oils.     Thank you to our sponsor   Zahler goes above and beyond to use high-quality bioavailable ingredients like the active form of folate, bioavailable iron, and omega 3s.
