  • Fat blend designed to more closely resemble that found in breast milk

Breast milk is best for your baby, but if you can’t or choose not to breast feed, we recommend you use SMA First Infant Milk. 

SMA First Infant Milk is scientifically formulated to meet your baby’s nutritional needs.  The formulation is unique to SMA and is our recommended choice when baby is not breastfed or if used in combination with breastfeeding. 

We have recently made some improvements to our nutritionally complete, whey dominant infant milk which now includes a new fat blend which is structured in a similar way to the fat found in breast milk.  This is in addition to our protein profile, (with alpha-protein, a high quality protein abundant in breast milk) and Omega 3 & 6 LCPs.  

Babies grow very fast in the first 6 months of life, usually doubling their birth weight, so getting the right amount of protein and other key nutrients is essential.  

At SMA we are continually striving to improve our infant formula, acknowledging the importance of early nutrition and its impact on future health through scientific research & development. 

 
Our Infant Milk formula
  • Is Nutritionally complete
  • Contains Omega 3 & 6 LCPs
  • Is Easy to Digest

Making it SMA's best breast milk substitute if you should chose to combination feed with breast milk or bottle-feed.

What are Omega 3 & 6 LCPs?
What are Omega 3 & 6 LCPs?

Omega 3 and 6 are oils called LCPs. This means long-chain polyunsaturates. 

LCPs are important components of cell membranes and play a key role in 
the development of the brain, eye, and nervous system.  Although LCPs can be made in the body, infants have a high demand for these nutrients and benefit from having LCPs in their diet in terms of  helping support brain and eye development.

IMPORTANT NOTICE:  Breastfeeding is best for babies. Good maternal nutrition is important for the preparation and maintenance of breastfeeding. Introducing partial bottle-feeding may have a negative effect on breastfeeding and reversing a decision not to breastfeed is difficult. You should always seek the advice of a doctor, midwife, health visitor, public health nurse, dietitian or pharmacist on the need for and proper method of use of infant milks and on all matters of infant feeding.  Social and financial implications should be considered when selecting a method of infant feeding. Infant milk should always be prepared and used as directed. Inappropriate foods or feeding methods, or improper use of infant formula, may present a health hazard.
