A2 Formula Stage 3 (400g) - 10+ Months

About this formula

This is Holle A2 Bio-Folgemilch 3 in the German-language 400 g pack. Holle labels it as follow-on formula from 10 months, made with organic skimmed cow's milk of the A2 type; Holle explains A2 as milk whose beta-casein protein is the A2 kind rather than A1.

The carbohydrates named in the ingredient list are maltodextrin and starch; the nutrition panel also shows lactose. The oils are palm, sunflower and rapeseed oil, plus oil from the microalga Schizochytrium sp., which Holle names as the DHA source (algae, not fish oil). Folate is added as folic acid. Holle's shop shows the EU organic logo for this product, gives Germany as the country of origin and Croatia as the origin of the main ingredient.

Selected nutrition, per 100 ml

Holle's shop gives these values per 100 ml of prepared formula (the amount of powder and water is in the feeding table on the pack): 67 kcal, fat 3.5 g, carbohydrate 7.5 g (lactose 5.0 g, starch 0.8 g), protein 1.4 g, DHA 14 mg. No ARA value is listed.

The ingredient list begins: skimmed A2 milk, whey product (partly demineralised whey powder), vegetable oils (palm, sunflower, rapeseed), maltodextrin, starch, all from organic farming. The full ingredient and nutrition panel is on the pack.

Preparing and storing

Follow the full preparation instructions and feeding table printed on your pack; this is a summary, not a replacement. Holle's shop says to store the closed pack away from heat; the best-before date is stamped on the base.

Powdered formula is not sterile. The CDC advises extra care for babies younger than 2 months, born prematurely or with a weakened immune system; ask your pediatrician how to prepare feeds for them. Once opened, Holle says to keep the powder dry; the page we read gives no time limit for an opened pack.
