USA – Kabrita, a prominent global producer of goat milk formula, has officially unveiled the inaugural and exclusive long-term FDA-approved goat milk-based infant formula in the United States.
This achievement comes after extensive clinical trials, confirming the safety and comprehensive nutritional adequacy of Kabrita’s infant formula tailored for a baby’s growth in the crucial initial year.
The enduring FDA approval signifies a major stride, ensuring a consistent presence of Kabrita’s infant formula in the US market.
“This guarantee offers reassurance to parents, highlighting the stability and dependability of the product,” a company representative stated.
In late 2023, the American Academy of Pediatrics formally endorsed goat milk infant formula as a suitable nutritional option for infants, regardless of whether they are breastfed or not.
This endorsement, particularly for those requiring formula supplementation in their first year, underscored the increasing acknowledgement of the nutritional advantages associated with goat milk-based formula.
Kabrita’s formula, containing goat milk proteins closely resembling those in breast milk, provides distinct benefits such as improved digestion compared to cow milk proteins.
Additionally, goat milk boasts significantly higher natural oligosaccharides, the third-largest component of breast milk, enhancing the overall nutritional value of the formula.
“As a pediatrician, I highly recommend Kabrita’s Goat Milk-Based Infant Formula as a safe and nourishing option for babies during the first year of life,” Ari Brown, a renowned pediatrician and the chief medical advisor for Kabrita USA stated.
“Finally, parents in the US can feed their babies with a trusted product, based on the highest quality Dutch goat milk that is legally imported to the US.”
Elieke Kearns, the Director of Medical and Scientific Affairs at Kabrita USA, emphasized the meticulous process involved in bringing the formula to the US market.
“We believe our product is the safest goat milk-based infant formula on the market, backed by years of clinical trials, peer-reviewed research, and extensive FDA clearances,” Kearns stated.
Kabrita’s infant formula presents various benefits, including natural oligosaccharides for promoting healthy digestion and immunity, essential vitamins and minerals for growth, a premium fat blend mimicking the fat profile of breast milk, and DHA and ARA for vision and brain development.
Importantly, the formula is devoid of corn syrup, GMOs, glyphosate, and maltodextrin.
The company responsibly sources its goat milk from over 100 family-owned farms in the Netherlands, subjecting it to a rigorous process with more than ninety quality checks.
With a legacy of over 75 years in formula expertise, Kabrita proudly holds the position as the #1 goat milk formula globally, nourishing 1.5 million babies daily.
This launch signifies a substantial advancement in infant nutrition choices, providing parents in the United States with a reliable and FDA-approved alternative.
