Patient's question:
My baby is one year old. I feel like my baby isn't developing well on this formula. I don't know which formula is better?Doctor's answer:
If you have been feeding your child more than five meals of milk powder a day, but they are not growing well, then consider that the child may not be suitable for this type of milk powder. You might want to try switching to a different brand of milk powder. However, as for what milk powder is suitable, you will need to try one by one gradually. You cannot treat supplementary foods as the main meal, as this will provide enough protein for the body to utilize. Foods like rice and congee are based on starch and cannot provide sufficient protein. If supplementary foods are treated as the main meal, the child's weight gain may be insufficient, and the brain may not receive enough protein for growth and development, which may interfere with intellectual development. It may also disrupt the production of immune globulins and affect immunity.
