Strives to be the Very Best Formula
Sound Nutritional Science
Baby's Only Organic® Dairy formula was introduced more than a decade ago as the very first organic formula in the U.S. Baby's Only Organic® is scientifically formulated to meet the highest nutritional standards established by the American Academy of Pediatrics.
Quality Organic Nutrition
Nature's One® recognizes the importance of providing the highest quality nutritional formula possible. Our company sets its ingredient standard beyond "organic" by sourcing only the best organic ingredients, including milk from organic family farms. Baby's Only Organic® is manufactured in the U.S.A.
The Best Organic Start
Nature's One believes breast milk is the baby's best organic option. Baby's Only Organic is intended for a toddler 1-year of age and older or as directed by a healthcare professional. After formula feeding or breast feeding the first year, Baby's Only Organic formula is a good nutritional choice to assure continuation of strong growth and development.
Compare to Other Brands
Parents should be aware that other organic formulas use less desirable ingredients like organic corn syrup (also called glucose syrup), organic palm olein oil and hexane processed DHA. Rest assured that Baby's Only Organic® will never contain inferior ingredients. Nature's One® only uses high quality ingredients.
Meets the American Academy of Pediatrics Nutritional Guidelines
Baby's Only Organic® formulas meet the nutritional requirements of the American Academy of Pediatrics recommendation for daily intake.
If milk sensitivity, lactose sensitivity or milk allergy are thought to exist, doctors may recommend Baby's Only Organic® LactoRelief or Soy Formulas.
Baby's Only Organic® is a better nutritional choice than goat or cow's milk or other fortified beverages. Baby's Only Organic provides complete organic nutrition as recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics with essential fatty acids needed to support rapid brain development. For toddler's who need added calories or have developed a sense of taste and flavors, consider offering PediaSmart® Chocolate or Vanilla nutritional formulas.Supplementing Breast Milk
Use as directed by a healthcare professional. For all ages, mix according to label instructions to ensure appropriate nutrition.Mixing Cereals
When mixing cereals or other foods for your baby, Baby's Only Organic® is perfectly suited at any age. Just follow the mixing instructions on the label, and then stir into cereal or food to achieve desired consistency.
- Can my infant use Baby's Only Organic® toddler formula?
Nature's One believes breast milk is the baby's best organic option. Baby's Only Organic is intended for a toddler 1-year of age and older or as directed by a healthcare professional. After formula feeding or breast feeding the first year, Baby's Only Organic formula is a good nutritional choice to assure continuation of strong growth and development.
We also understand that long term breastfeeding is not feasible for every mother. Therefore, we formulated Baby's Only Organic formula to meet the American Academy of Pediatrics nutritional recommendations. Baby's Only Organic Dairy Formula provides the correct balance of proteins, carbohydrates, essential fatty acids, vitamins and minerals needed to support normal growth and development of a young child.
- BPA Testing and No BPA Used in Packaging for Baby's Only Organic® Formula.
Testing Concludes BPA Undetected
Nature's One® has finalized BPA testing on its powdered formula using a third-party laboratory. The testing method is 10-times more sensitive than the current test used by the FDA. As expected, no BPA was detected in Nature's One® formula products.
Packaging does not contain BPA
With the help of Nature's One® suppliers, all components used in our light-weight canisters are BPA-free. This includes the "easy-open" lid.
Environmentally Friendly Packaging
Our canisters are good for the environment because they are recyclable and on average contain 50% recycled content. Additionally, the canisters are light weight since they are made of paperboard instead of tin. This reduces environmental waste and energy used in manufacturing and transportation. The canister's metal top and bottom are also recyclable. Again, all components of the packaging are BPA-free.
As an organic manufacturer, Nature's One® is concerned over the level of chemicals ingested by babies, toddlers and children and will always use the highest quality ingredients and materials available to produce and package its organic pediatric products.
- Is it dangerous to dilute Baby's Only Organic® formula?
Baby's Only Organic® formula should always be mixed according to label instructions to ensure that the proper balance of water to nutrients is given to a baby. Some parents or caretakers may think the formula is too "thick" and needs to be diluted or they may be trying to "stretch out" the powdered formula for economical reasons by adding more water than recommended. These practices are extremely hazardous to a baby's health and can result in malnutrition because the baby is not receiving the needed calories and nutrients to support growth and development. Formula dilution is life threatening as it can cause water intoxication (over-hydration) and an imbalance of electrolytes resulting in
hyponatremiaor too little sodium in the baby's body. Drinking too much water basically drowns the cells because the baby's immature kidneys are unable to process the water quickly enough. Symptoms of water intoxication can include pale colored urine and an excessive number of wet diapers (more than 6 to 8 per day). Water intoxication can lead to inconsolable crying because the baby's body tissues, including the brain, swell and can cause a headache; difficulty breathing because the lungs contain too much water; irregular heart beat because the electrolytes are not in balance; seizures noted by odd facial movements, lip smacking, rhythmic jerking of a body part; coma; and ultimately death if not medically treated. Young babies will usually obtain all of the water they need from breast milk or formula and extra water is rarely needed. Always prepare baby formula and Baby's Only Organic® formulas according to label instructions and do not provide your baby with supplemental water unless directed to do so by the baby's healthcare provider.
- What if I am noticing a change in my baby's bowel movements?
Dietary changes can affect the frequency and consistency of your baby's stools. These dietary changes include: switching from breast milk to formula, switching formulas, and adding solid foods to
the diet. Noticing a change in the stool consistency is more important than the stool frequency as it is not uncommon for babies to go several days without having a bowel movement. It can take up to a week for a baby's digestive system to "learn" a new food. The stools of breastfed babies are usually soft and more "mushy" whereas formula fed babies have slightly firmer stools. The stools of breastfed babies are also more frequent than babies on formula. Grunting and grimacing during a bowel movement are often just baby's way of experiencing the use of the various muscles associated with having a bowel movement.
If stools are hard and dry when passed and the baby is showing signs of pain and cries while trying to have a bowel movement, constipation may be suspected. Whenever constipation is suspected, it is always best to consult with your child's healthcare professional to ensure that nothing medically is taking place.
Any of the following signs may indicate constipation:
- dry, hard stools and pain on passing them
- hard, pebble-like stools passed with straining during a bowel movement
- drawing legs up on the abdomen, grunting, getting red-faced, and/or crying when trying to have a bowel movement
- streaks of blood along the outside of the stool
- abdominal discomfort and distention along with hard and infrequent stools
- vomiting when trying to have a bowel movement
You might also try the following to prevent and treat mild constipation:
- Prepare the formula using the instructions on the manufacturer's label. Each manufacturer has its own recipe and processing methods, which result in the powdered formula having different densities. So it is important to use the manufacturer's scoop rather than using a scoop from another formula brand.
- Be sure to use unpacked, level scoops of powdered formula with the appropriate amount of water. Use a knife to level the powdered formula. Packed or mounded scoops can result in too much powder being used causing the formula to become overly concentrated. This could cause problems such as constipation. If you are using teaspoons, tablespoons, and/or measuring cups to measure the powder, again please be sure to use unpacked, level amounts of powder. These measuring spoons or cups are those one would use for measuring ingredients when baking or cooking and should not be household eating utensil spoons or drinking cups.
- Please note that scoop and tablespoon/cup measuring is variable. Studies conducted with adults found that everyone measures and scoops formula powder differently, and in fact, the same person scoops/measures differently across different occasions. All formula measuring instructions are designed to nutritionally accommodate this "human error." However, the only way to precisely measure an exact amount of formula would be to use a gram scale, found in most kitchen stores, for the powder and a calibrated milliliter device for measuring the water.
- Feed smaller volumes of formula more frequently. One saying that may help is "feed half as much twice as often."
- If your child is in a very hot environment, one to two ounces of water offered between breast milk or formula feedings may help.
- Massage baby's tummy by starting at the belly button and then massaging outwards in a circle in a clockwise direction. Only continue this if your child enjoys the massage and is comfortable and relaxed.
- Place your child on his or her back and move his or her legs in a bicycling motion. Hold the legs and turn them gently in a cycling motion.
- Give your child a bath in warm water. This may relax your child so stools are passed more easily. Once your child is relaxed in the bath, try massaging the tummy as noted above.
- Discuss with your healthcare provider the possibility of using probiotics to help alleviate symptoms.
- Do not use honey with a baby because of the risk of botulism.
- Do not use over-the-counter medicines without first checking with baby's healthcare professional.
If after consulting with your child's healthcare professional and lactose intolerance is suspected to be the cause of constipation, Baby's Only Organic® LactoRelief Formula may be an option. If the constipation is a result of a cow's milk protein intolerance, Baby's Only Organic® Soy Formula may help given that it is lactose and dairy free.
- Why should infants not drink cow's milk?
The nutrient composition of cow's milk is specific to a baby calf and not to a human baby. Cow's milk has a higher level of protein to meet the rapid growth needs of calves. This level, called the renal solute load, is too high for a human baby and could overload a baby's kidneys resulting in serious health problems. It is harder to digest and could also cause intestinal blood loss. Cow's milk contains butterfat which is a very saturated fat and also more difficult to digest. As is commonly known, animal saturated fat contributes to heart disease. Butterfat also does not provide the appropriate amounts or balance of essential fatty acids. Although the carbohydrate in cow's milk is lactose, the same type of carbohydrate in mother's milk, the level is lower than in breast milk. Cow's milk is also deficient in iron, which could result in iron deficiency anemia. It is also lacking in copper, Vitamin C and Vitamin E.
Human breast milk is the ideal food for a human baby. For those babies who cannot or do not receive breast milk, the first choice of formula is a dairy-based formula made from cow's milk that has been modified to better suit the nutrient needs of a baby. Human milk serves as the model for the composition of formula, but formulas at present still do not contain many of the unique compositional features of breast milk. Breast milk contains hormones, immunologic agents, essential fatty acids, and enzymes to help with digestion.
Modifications that are now made in cow's milk to make a baby formula closer in nutrient composition to breast milk include:
- Reducing the protein content. Baby's Only Organic® dairy formula is made with organic non-fat dried cow's milk at appropriate levels.
- Replacing the butterfat in cow's milk, which is highly saturated, to a proper mixture of vegetable oils that provide the appropriate balance of saturated fats, monounsaturated fats, and polyunsaturated fats. Baby's Only Organic® dairy formula is made with organic high oleic sunflower oil, organic coconut oil, and organic soybean oil. This blend also provides the correct balance of the essential fatty acids linoleic acid and alpha-linolenic acid needed by the body to make DHA and ARA. These fatty acids are important for brain function and visual acuity.
- Adding appropriate carbohydrates to bring the total carbohydrate content closer to mother's milk. The carbohydrate composition of Baby's Only Organic® dairy formula consists of 65% organic brown rice syrup and 35% naturally occurring lactose which comes in with the organic non-fat dried cow's milk.
- Adding some vitamins and minerals in the appropriate amounts needed by a baby to grow and develop.
Although human milk and cow's milk contain cholesterol, formulas at present do not contain cholesterol until additional research is done to document the safety and efficacy of doing so. We do not add cholesterol to the blend of organic oils we use to meet the fatty acid requirements and they do not naturally contain cholesterol. There is currently no recommendation on the amount of cholesterol to be fed during early childhood. In fact, the Academy of Pediatrics has not issued any statement regarding whether cholesterol should be added to baby formula. Cholesterol is made by the body in the liver and the intestinal tract and babies have the ability to manufacture amounts needed to support growth and development.
If a parent is considering use of whole cow's milk because of difficulties with formula or for cost reasons, this may signal a greater importance to seek guidance and receive proper nutritional advice appropriate for a baby. Consult the child's healthcare professional for advice.
- Why should infants not drink goat's milk?
In the United States, goat's milk is gaining popularity because goats eat less and occupy less grazing space than cows and also because goat's milk is thought to be more easily digested and less allergenic than cow's milk. Although goat's milk may theoretically have some advantages over cow's milk when it comes to allergies, scientific studies have not found a decreased incidence of allergy with goat's milk.1 Just like cow's milk has a nutrient profile needed to support a growing calf, the composition of goat's milk meets the needs of a growing goat kid, but not that of a human baby.
Goat's milk has a slightly higher protein content and more potassium, phosphorus, sodium and chloride than cow's milk. These amounts (known as the renal solute load) found in both goat's milk and cow's milk are higher than found in human milk and could overload an baby's developing kidneys and result in serious health problems. Goat's milk acidosis has been reported in the scientific literature and is most likely a result of the high protein level.2 There are questions too about the possible insufficient levels of the amino acids tryptophan and cysteine in goat's milk.3 Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins needed to make body cells and organs.
The fat in goat's milk is lower in essential fatty acids than cow's milk. The types of fats in goat's milk differ from both cow's milk and human milk. Goat's milk butterfat, just like butterfat from cow's milk, is an animal fat that is more difficult to digest than the fat in human milk. As is commonly known, saturated animal fat can contribute to heart disease. Goat's milk does not contain the types or amounts of saturated fat, monounsaturated fat and polyunsaturated fat of human milk. The right proportion of these fats is necessary to ensure brain, organ, and tissue development. Fat is also used for energy to fuel a baby's growth, along with carbohydrates.
The type of carbohydrate in goat's milk is lactose, similar to human milk and cow's milk, but like cow's milk it is lower than the amount of lactose found in human milk. Carbohydrates are needed for energy to fuel growth during early childhood.
Goat's milk is deficient in iron, folic acid and Vitamin B6, all nutrients needed during early childhood to prevent anemia.
Goat's milk should not be used as a substitute for a formula or as a supplement to breast milk. Like cow's milk, goat's milk can cause intestinal irritation and anemia.
Formulas are designed to be as close to mother's milk as possible to provide the appropriate nutrition for babies during the various stages of early childhood. Of course, mother's milk is always the preferred feeding the first year of life.
If a parent is considering use of goat's milk because baby is having difficulty with formulas, this may signal a greater importance to seek guidance and receive proper nutritional advice appropriate for a baby. Consult the child's healthcare professional for advice.

- When should my baby switch from formula to milk?
Most doctors recommend transitioning from formula to cow's milk after a baby's first birthday. However, parents should consider Baby's Only Organics® as it is an iron-fortified nutritional formula that provides the essential vitamins, minerals, protein, essential fatty-acids and carbohydrates needed to support your baby's continued growth and development.
Baby's Only Organic is intended for a toddler 1-year of age and older or as directed by a healthcare professional.
For mothers who are breastfeeding a baby older than 12-months of age, Baby's Only Organic® can be used to supplement breast milk or substitute breast milk feedings as needed. Baby's Only Organic® can also be reconstituted according to package directions and used to mix cereals for the baby at any age.
Baby's Only Organic® has been formulated to meet the nutritional standards of the American Academy of Pediatrics.
- Does Baby's Only Organic® contain DHA & ARA?
There are two basic groupings of fatty acids called (1) essential fatty acids or "precursor fats" (as found in Baby's Only Organic® pediatric formulas) and (2) non-essential fatty acids which can also be "preformed fats" (as found in Baby's Only Essentials® DHA and ARA Fatty Acid Supplement* and Baby's Only Organic® Dairy Formula with DHA & ARA).
Baby's Only Organic® pediatric formulas contain two essential (precursor) fats: Alpha-Linolenic Acid (ALA) and Linoleic Acid (LA). Alpha-Linolenic and Linoleic fatty acids are called "essential" because the human body cannot make these fats and therefore it is essential to derive them from food sources. Alpha-Linolenic Acid is an omega-3 used by the body to make Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA). Linoleic Acid is an omega-6 used by the body to make Arachidonic Acid (ARA). DHA and ARA are called "non-essential" fatty acids because full-term, healthy babies, children, and adults can manufacture these from Alpha-Linolenic and Linoleic fatty acids.
Baby's Only Essentials® DHA and ARA Fatty Acid Supplement and Baby's Only Organic® Dairy Formula with DHA & ARA are made with preformed DHA and ARA long-chain fatty acids. This means the fats are already available in their final forms and the body does not need to manufacture from precursor fats, Alpha-Linolenic and Linoleic fatty acids.

- Why does Nature's One® sell Baby's Only Organic® Dairy with and without DHA & ARA?
The company has always taken the position that research has demonstrated mixed results in regards to the necessity of adding DHA & ARA to formula.1 Below are the two arguments that parents should consider when choosing a formula:
Reasons to question the necessity of adding DHA & ARA to formula:
Omega-3 fatty acids, including DHA, are not considered to be essential nutrients by the FDA. This is because the human body is able to convert the essential fatty acids (linolenic and linoleic) to DHA and ARA and there is no evidence of immaturity during early childhood of this metabolic conversion.2, 3 The American Academy of Pediatrics along with the FDA specifies the nutrients that must be used in formula. Presently, there is not a requirement for DHA or ARA.
Baby formula research has demonstrated that when a baby receives higher levels of essential fatty acids (linolenic and linoleic), the addition of DHA and ARA to formula did not show any significant health benefits. All Baby's Only Organic® formulas contain high levels of these essential fatty acids.
To date, the American Academy of Pediatrics(AAP) has taken "no official position" on adding the DHA to formulas. The AAP also believes that "it is likely that any beneficial effects of DHA supplementation will be subtle and possibly not detected with available methodology.
Good Reasons to Include DHA & ARA to Formula:
Breast-fed babies receive DHA and ARA from breast milk and studies show that breast-fed babies typically have higher blood levels of DHA and ARA in comparison to babies fed formulas without DHA and ARA. 4, 5 This has raised the question as to whether DHA and ARA supplementation is needed in formulas.
These fats are known to concentrate in the gray matter of the baby's brain and eye retina starting in the third trimester of pregnancy. Following birth, a baby continues to receive an abundance of DHA and ARA fatty acids through breast milk. Because DHA and ARA play a role in brain and eye development and also because there is no evidence that supplementation with these non-essential fatty acids is harmful to babies and young children, most formulas are now fortified with DHA and ARA.

- Why did Nature's One choose organic brown rice syrup as a carbohydrate source?
Nature's One chose organic brown syrup, in addition to naturally occurring lactose, as a carbohydrate source because rice is:
- Gluten free
- Known to be a relatively non allergenic food
- Well tolerated
- The least allergenic of all grains
- A complex carbohydrate versus a simple carbohydrate (sugar)
- What are the benefits of using a complex carbohydrate such as organic brown rice syrup versus other carbohydrates?
Carbohydrates are an important part of the diet for babies because carbohydrates are the primary source of fuel for the body and brain. There are two types of carbohydrates; complex carbohydrates and simple carbohydrates (also known as simple sugars). The organic brown rice syrup used in Baby's Only Organic is a complex carbohydrate where as glucose, lactose and sucrose found in other formulas are simple carbohydrates. Corn syrup is also a simple carbohydrate. The benefits of a complex carbohydrate versus a simple carbohydrate include:
- Slower rate of digestion
- Release of energy over a longer period of time
- Energy and hunger levels are stabilized
- Possible decreased risk of weight gain and/or dental carries
- What is the difference between naturally occurring organic lactose and organic lactose?
Lactose is a milk sugar which can naturally be present or added to a food product. The lactose that is present in Baby's Only Organic Dairy Formula comes naturally from the organic cow's milk. No additional lactose has been added to the formula. Most dairy formulas on the market contain added lactose as a carbohydrate source which may cause some concern if a baby is sensitive to lactose. Consuming too much lactose if a baby is sensitive may cause gassiness and bloating and make for a very unhappy baby.
Vegetable Oils
|Vegetable Oils
|Baby's Only Organic®
|Organic High Oleic Sunflower and/or Safflower Oil, Organic Soybean Oil &
Organic Coconut Oil
Babies and young children need different types of healthy fat for growth and development. Vegetable oils in formula are a source of fat. Baby's Only Organic Formulas contain a blend of three organic vegetable oils: Organic High Oleic Sunflower and/or Safflower Oil, Organic Soybean Oil and Organic Coconut Oil. The vegetable oils are expeller pressed, which is a squeezing process to extract the oil from the organic plants. No harsh chemicals are used to produce the vegetable oils in Baby's Only Organic Formulas.
There are some organic and conventional formulas that contain palm oil or palm olein oil. (Palm olein oil is made from palm oil.) Palm olein oil as a predominant fat source in some formulas has been shown to cause decreased calcium and fat absorption which can result in both lower bone mineralization and harder stool formation or constipation.1, 2, 3 Baby's Only Organic Formulas do not contain palm oil or palm olein oil.
Almost 90% of all palm oil is produced in Indonesia and Malaysia at oil-palm plantations. This has resulted in widespread deforestation, destruction of rain forests, and putting the survival of some animals at risk. The razing by burning of tropical rain forests to make way for oil-palm plantations also results in the release of large amounts of greenhouse gas into the atmosphere.4

% Whey & Casein
- Little Miss Muffet's Curds & Whey
Casein and whey are the two major proteins found in cow's milk. Approximately 18% of cow's milk protein is casein and 82% is whey.1 The children's nursery rhyme about Little Miss Muffet who sat on a tuffet eating her curds and whey helps to explain these two types of protein. Curds are the casein portion of cow's milk protein and whey is the more liquid portion. So Little Miss Muffet was most likely eating cottage cheese! When milk is mixed with an acid such as vinegar, you get small curds and liquid whey resulting in cottage cheese. When we consume milk, the same thing happens during the digestion process in our stomach; that is, the casein forms small curds that take a bit longer to digest than the watery whey portion of the milk.
- Casein & Whey Debate
There have been various debates about whether a dairy-based formula should be casein-predominant or whey-predominant. The reason for these debates is that human milk is commonly reported to have an average whey to casein ratio of 60:40 versus the 18:82 ratio of cow's milk. According to a very well respected human milk researcher, "there is no 'fixed' ratio of whey to casein in human milk; it varies throughout lactation" and "the frequently cited ratio of 60:40 is an approximation."2 To make matters even more interesting, the notion that adding more whey to a formula's recipe will result in a product more like breast milk is flawed. Proteins are made up of molecules called amino acids. The types of amino acids found in human milk whey are different than those found in cow's milk.3
A baby formula made from cow's milk will have a whey to casein ratio of 18:82 similar to that found in cow's milk and is called a casein-predominant formula. Some manufacturers add cow's milk whey to baby formula to bring the whey to casein ratio closer to breast milk in the belief that a 60:40 ratio is better for a baby and there are a few formula manufacturers who use only cow's milk whey claiming "gentler" proteins and/or easier digestion. These formulas with added whey or only whey as the protein source are called whey-predominant formulas. A few countries, such as China, have even gone the regulatory route of requiring that baby formulas be whey-based in the belief that adding more whey to the formula to at least the 60:40 ratio makes the milk more similar to breast milk. China's regulators have even gone so far as to make statements that casein-predominant formulas cause intestinal bleeding, malnutrition, diarrhea, and kidney stress.
- Baby's Only Organic® Dairy Formulas are Easily Digested
Standard dairy-based formulas such as Baby's Only Organic® Dairy formula derive their protein from non-fat cow's milk without added whey. So these formulas are considered casein-predominant formulas. A healthy term child has no problem digesting the casein found in standard dairy-based, casein predominant formulas such as Baby's Only Organic® Dairy Formula.4,5,6,7
Pediatric nutrition experts have stated:
- "For a term healthy baby, there is no nutritional advantage of whey-predominant over casein-predominant formulas"4
- "Even today, rather meager evidence exists that a milk-based formula with added whey proteins results in a product that is superior to a milk-based formula without the additional whey proteins"5
- "Experience accumulated over the past 50 years has shown that casein-dominant formulas support normal growth in full-term babies"6
In fact, casein has served as the standard reference protein to measure the biological value of other proteins in a test called PER (Protein Efficacy Ratio).8
- Science Does Not Support Anti-Casein Claims
Regarding statements that have been made about casein causing intestinal bleeding, diarrhea, and malnutrition, there is no scientific literature reporting these symptoms in healthy term babies. These symptoms can arise in babies and young children with cow's milk protein intolerance or cow's milk protein allergy. In these situations, any food or beverage containing cow's milk proteins, including whey-predominant formulas, must be excluded from the child's diet. Cow's milk protein allergy is the most common cause of gastrointestinal bleeding.
Statements have also been made regarding casein as a cause of kidney stress in babies. Kidney stress is the result of a very high renal solute load. Renal solute load refers to the sum of certain nutrients and by-products of digestion that are filtered by the kidney. These include amino acids, urea and electrolytes. The American Academy of Pediatrics along with the Food and Drug Administration specify the level of protein and minerals that must be in a formula. These levels assure that the renal solute load of all baby formulas are at a safe level when the formulas are prepared at standard dilution to 20 Calories per ounce. Renal solute load can be an issue for babies and children requiring formulas with higher caloric concentrations but these children are usually under medical supervision for various illnesses or conditions.
In summary, casein-predominant formulas such as Baby's Only Organic® Dairy Formula have been used for decades and have supported good growth and development in healthy term babies.

Essential Fatty Acids
|Linoleic Acid
(per 100 kcal)
(per 100 kcal)
|Baby's Only Organic®
Linoleic acid (LA) and linolenic acid (ALA) are essential fats. They are considered "essential" because the body cannot make them and they must be provided by the foods we eat. LA and ALA are also considered precursor fats because the body uses these fats to make the nonessential fatty acids, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and arachidonic acid (ARA). Formulas contain LA and ALA because they are necessary for the growth and development of cells, especially in the brain, nerve and eye tissues.
The organic oils used in Baby's Only Organic formula assure the appropriate amounts of LA and ALA. These organic oils include high oleic sunflower or safflower oil, soybean oil, and coconut oil.

- How do organic ingredients differ from conventional ingredients?
Organic certification is assurance that the ingredients used in Baby's Only Organic® are not genetically modified, processed with harsh chemicals like sulfur dioxide and hexane, and contain nothing artificial. Organic farming methods prohibit the use of synthetic herbicides & insecticides. Organic dairy farms do not treat cows with bovine growth hormones, steroids, or antibiotics and only feed cows organic grains and grasses. Nature's One carefully selects all ingredients for purity and quality.
- Why do children benefit from an organic diet?
The importance of an organic diet is becoming more and more evident, especially for children. Children are most vulnerable to chemical pesticide exposure because they drink more water, eat more food, and breathe more air on a per unit weight basis when compared with adults. Children also metabolize, detoxify, or excrete environmental agents differently than adults. Exposure to harmful pesticides at an early age can cause developmental and behavioral problems. A recent study linked organophosphate pesticide exposure to attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).1 Federal law does not allow organic farmers to use these toxic pesticides.

- Are organic foods more nutritious?
Organic foods may also be more nutritious. Although there continues to be debate about this claim, many studies have reported the nutritional superiority of a number of organic foods versus their non-organic counterparts. For example, organic milk can contain more desirable fatty acids and antioxidants than found in conventionally produced milk.2 Agricultural scientists continue to investigate the nutritional superiority of organically grown foods, especially their higher content of many antioxidants.

Taurine, Selenium & Iron
Baby's Only Organic® formulas do contain taurine, selenium and iron, similar to conventional formulas.
Taurine, an amino acid normally present in breast milk, has been shown to play a role in retinal development, among others. Cow and soy milks do not contain adequate amounts of the amino acid.
Selenium is a mineral important for proper formation of red blood cells, development of skeletal muscle and proper growth. Selenium, too, is normally present in breast milk, but lacking in cow and soy milks. Baby's Only Organic® contains added taurine and selenium.
Iron is added at the level recommended by the Academy of Pediatrics Committee on Nutrition. Inappropriate dietary iron could result in anemia, weakness, muscle fatigue, abnormal gastrointestinal motility, and a reduction of cognitive ability. This reduction in cognition has been shown to be irreversible, even once a normal iron level is retained.
DHA & ARA Fatty Acids
|DHA Fatty Acid
|Baby's Only Organic®
|Sold separately as Baby's Only Essentials® DHA & ARA Supplement
Baby's Only Organic® Dairy Formula does not contain added DHA and ARA in the formula but does contain sufficient amounts of linoleic and linolenic fatty acids. Linoleic and linolenic acid are essential fatty acids and precursor fats from which DHA and ARA are made in the body. This means that full-term, healthy babies, children, and adults can make DHA and ARA in the body from linoleic and linolenic fatty acids.
For parents who would like to supplement with DHA and ARA or have formula with added DHA and ARA, Baby's Only Essentials® DHA and ARA Fatty Acid Supplement and Baby's Only Organic® Dairy Formula with DHA and ARA are available. The DHA and ARA in Baby's Only Essentials® and Baby's Only Organic® Dairy with DHA and ARA are naturally derived from egg phospholipids (egg lecithin) using an organic compliant process without the use of harsh chemicals.
- What form of DHA & ARA does Baby's Only Organic contain compared to other formulas?
The DHA and ARA in Baby's Only Organic® Dairy with DHA and ARA are naturally derived from egg phospholipids (egg lecithin) using an organic compliant process without the use of harsh chemicals.
Other formulas use DHA and ARA that are derived from fungus and algae and treated with hexane solvent, acid and bleach. This novel source of DHA and ARA is manufactured by Martek Biosciences Corporation and marketed as life'sDHA™. In addition to the harsh toxic chemicals such as hexane that are used to extract and process the life'sDHA™ oils, several advocacy groups believe the processing involves genetically modified organisms (GMOs) based on their review of Martek's patents.
- What is the difference between DHA from egg phospholipids versus triglycerides?
The DHA used by Nature's One® is a fatty acid from egg phospholipids while life'sDHA™ is a fatty acid in the form of a triglyceride. The use of egg phospholipids in a baby's nutritional profile has been widely studied and understood to be more easily absorbed and available for the body to use than DHA from the form of triglycerides.
Breast milk is made up of both phospholipids and triglycerides. All other formulas only contain triglycerides formulated with vegetable oil blends and life'sDHA™, but are void of phospholipids. Nature's One® believes adding a phospholipid to formula achieves a more natural fatty acid profile compared to other organic and conventional formulas brands.
Allergen Information
Contains milk, soy, and coconut ingredients
Gluten Free. Made without GMO ingredients.
Contains no wheat or wheat gluten, no palm olein oil, no Martek DHA & ARA, no corn ingredients such as corn syrup, no sucrose, and no peanut.
No BPA used in packaging.
Baby's Only Organic® Dairy Formula contains naturally occurring nucleotides found in organic dairy protein. Nature's One® believes this is adequate to meet the growth and development needs of children. These organic nucleotides are not declared on Baby's Only Organic's label because it is not an ingredient addition - instead they occur naturally as mentioned.
Nutritional science and the medical community have not determined if there are any added benefits for added nucleotides - especially since all are synthetically derived. The American Academy of Pediatrics Committee on Nutrition weighs-in on this subject as well commenting that "...additional studies are needed to understand the mechanism of action, confirm clinical endpoints, and monitor the long-term effects of adding nucleotides to baby formula." 1
Most importantly, nucleotides added to conventional and organic formulas are derived by synthetic, non-organic methods. There are presently no organic or natural sources for nucleotides. We are therefore concerned about the harmful effects of the chemicals used to process nucleotides and the synthetic source of nucleotides; especially since the benefits of their addition have not been clearly demonstrated.

Martek life'sDHA™
Nature's One® Formulas Do Not Contain life'sDHA™
In 2001, US formula manufacturers began adding a novel source of DHA and ARA that is manufactured by Martek Biosciences Corporation and branded as life's DHA™. The DHA and ARA are derived from algae and fungus and treated with hexane solvent, acid and bleach. The following is the manufacturing process described by Martek: "The oil is then separated from the dried biomass by hexane extraction and centrifugation and/or filtration, followed by winterization. The hexane phase undergoes additional centrifugation/filtration to remove solids then the winterized oil is heated and treated with acid. Subsequently, the oil is treated with caustic, centrifuged, bleached and deodorized."1
In addition to the harsh toxic chemicals such as hexane that are used to extract and process the life'sDHA™ oils, several organic advocacy groups believe the processing involves genetically modified organisms (GMOs) based on their review of Martek's patents.2, 3 GMO refers to an organism whose genetic characteristics have been altered by the insertion of a modified gene or a gene from another organism using the techniques of genetic engineering. Despite using harsh toxic chemicals and GMOs, life'sDHA™ continues to be used in organic formula and baby food.Read More...
According to various organic consumer advocacy groups, Martek Biosciences Corporation uses microencapsulation and mutagenesis to process life'sDHA™ . The microencapsulation that is used to transform the oil to a powder is specifically listed as an "exclusion method" under national organic standards. The DHA and ARA are produced from mutant strains of algae and fungi with unnaturally high DHA and ARA levels using mutagenesis. The process of mutagenesis involves exposing cells to radiation or mutagenic chemicals to create a variety of mutant cells from which desired characteristics can be selected. Mutagenesis is not specifically mentioned in the national organic regulations of "excluded methods" for GMOs, but it does fall under a broader category of "methods used to genetically modify organisms or influence their growth and development by means that are not possible under natural conditions or processes and are not considered compatible with organic production."3
Nature's One® has never added life'sDHA™ to any of its formulas. Because of the harsh toxic chemicals that are used to extract and process the life'sDHA™ oils and the use of GMOs, Nature's One believes these ingredients have no place in any organic products, especially one designed for babies and young children. The non-profit organization, The Cornucopia Institute, has reviewed in detail the controversy surrounding algal and fungal sources of DHA and ARA along with reports of some adverse effects on babies when fed formulas containing life'sDHA™. The entire Cornucopia Institute's report can be found at Cornucopia.org.
Baby's Only Essentials® DHA and ARA Supplement and also Baby's Only Organic® Dairy with DHA Formula sources of DHA and ARA are derived from egg yolk phospholipids, a safe and natural source of these fatty acids. Nature's One has chosen to use egg phospholipids over life'sDHA™ algal oils because it is not a hexane processed triglyceride and does not involve genetic modification.Read More...
The use of egg phospholipids in human nutrition, especially nutrition for babies, has been widely studied. It is well understood that phospholipids form smaller droplets in the intestinal tract and are more easily absorbed in the intestinal tract and offer greater bioavailability than fungal or fish oils (triglycerides). Research suggests that the addition of phospholipids to formulas is desirable due to their important role in human milk. The phospholipids contained in breast milk are rich sources of DHA and ARA. However, baby and toddler formulas contain high levels of triglycerides formulated with vegetable oil blends (sunflower/safflower, coconut & soy oil), but are void of phospholipids. Knowing baby and toddler formulas already provide abundant triglycerides, Nature's One believes egg phospholipid added to formulas achieves a fatty acid profile more similar to breast milk; rather than adding more triglycerides as found in Martek's life'sDHA™ oils.

Vitamin A
This is important for the development of bones and teeth and helps maintain the gums. It is essential for night vision, healthy skin, hair and mucous membranes. It is sometimes referred to as the anti-infective vitamin because it is required for the proper functioning of the immune system and helps prevent infection.
Baby's Only Organic® Formulas: 300 IU (per 100 calories)
Good animal sources of Vitamin A include: milk and dairy products, organ meats such as liver.
Good plant sources of the pro Vitamin A carotenoids include: deep yellow and orange fruits and vegetables such as carrots, sweet potatoes, cantaloupe, and dark green leafy vegetables.
Vitamin D
Vitamin D, also known as calciferol, is often called the sunshine vitamin because of the body's ability to make it from the interaction of the sun on the skin. Vitamin D made from this process is referred to as Vitamin D3 or cholecalciferol. Vitamin D3 is also available from animal sources. Vitamin D derived from plant sources is known as Vitamin D2 or ergocalciferol. Vitamin D helps the body properly utilize calcium and phosphorus for the proper functioning of the nervous system. Recent research has confirmed that Vitamin D3 is more effective than Vitamin D2 in humans in improving the bodies Vitamin D status.1
Vitamin D is essential for the development and maintenance of healthy bones and teeth in babies, children and adults. In babies and children, a deficiency of Vitamin D results in rickets, a softening of the bones, which can result in bent legs. In adults, osteomalacia (a softening of the bones) or osteoporosis (thinning and weakening of the bones) can occur.
An excessive amount of Vitamin D supplementation can result in an elevated blood calcium level and can lead to calcium deposits in soft tissues, including blood vessels and kidneys, resulting in serious damage. High blood pressure, high blood cholesterol levels, diarrhea, drowsiness or headaches could also result from an overdose of Vitamin D. Before using a Vitamin D supplement, always check with your healthcare provider who can perform a blood level test and determine the appropriate amount of Vitamin D supplementation needed per day.
For babies and children consuming Baby's Only Organic® formulas or Organic PediaSmart® Complete Nutrition Beverage, the amount of Vitamin D3, the preferred form of Vitamin D, in these formulas meets the recommended amounts needed daily when used as a sole source of nutrition. When used as a part of a healthy diet, the amount of Vitamin D in these formulas helps to ensure adequate Vitamin D status.
Baby's Only Organic® Formulas: 75 IU (per 100 calories)
Good Food Sources: fortified milk, cheese, eggs, some fish such as sardines and salmon, and fish oils.
1. Tripkovic L, Lambert H, Hart K, et al. "Comparison of vitamin D2 and vitamin D3 supplementation in raising serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D status: A systemic review and meta-analysis," American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. 2012; 95: 1357-1364.
Vitamin E
Vitamin E is a generic term used to describe a family of eight antioxidants – 4 tocopherols and 4 tocotrienols. However, only alpha-tocopherol is the form actively used in the body and is, therefore, the form of Vitamin E found in the largest quantity in blood and tissues. Natural Vitamin E Acetate, also known as natural alpha-tocopheryl acetate, is the commonly used form of Vitamin E in foods and vitamin supplements. Vitamin E protects Vitamin A and the essential fatty acids from oxidation in the body. It is needed for the proper functioning of nerves and muscles and helps to form red blood cells, muscle and other tissues.
A deficiency of Vitamin E has been observed in individuals with severe malnutrition or who have a malabsorption syndrome such as cystic fibrosis or cholestatic liver disease. A deficiency of Vitamin E can result in neurological symptoms such as impaired balance and coordination, muscle weakness, and damage to the retina of the eye. Excessive Vitamin E can impair blood clotting leading to hemorrhage and can have a negative effect on white blood cell functioning.
Baby's Only Organic® Formulas: 2 IU (per 100 calories)
Good Food Sources: poultry, seafood, green leafy vegetables, egg yolk, nuts, seeds, wheat germ, whole grains.
Vitamin K
There are three types:
• Vitamin K1 or phylloquinone which is found in plants
• Vitamin K2 or menaquinone which is synthesized by many bacteria
• Vitamin K3 or menadione which is a synthetic form
Vitamin K helps the blood to clot when the body is injured and is important in bone development and repair. In babies, there is a life threatening and preventable bleeding disorder known as Vitamin K Deficiency Bleeding (VKDB). This is the reason why it is standard practice to give all newborns an injection of phylloquinone after birth. Baby's Only Organic® formulas contain the plant-based phylloquinone (Vitamin K1).
Baby's Only Organic® Formulas: 8.5 mcg (per 100 calories)
Good Food Sources: green leafy vegetables, pork, liver, oats, wheat bran, whole grains.
Biotin is part of the B-complex of vitamins. It is thought to play a role in cell growth and is important in the metabolism of fats, carbohydrates (sugars), and some amino acids (the building blocks of protein).
Baby's Only Organic® Formulas: 3 mcg (per 100 calories)
Good Food Sources: eggs, meats, fish, nuts, seeds, dried beans and peas (legumes).
Folic Acid
Folic acid, sometimes called folate or folacin or Vitamin B9, works with vitamins B6 and B12 in protein metabolism. It is needed to make genetic material (DNA and RNA). It promotes normal red blood cell formation and reduces the risk of neural tube (brain and spine) birth defects. This is one reason why a folic acid supplement is recommended during pregnancy.
Baby's Only Organic® Formulas: 15 mcg (per 100 calories
Good Food Sources: poultry, liver, dark green leafy vegetables, dried beans and peas (legumes), yeast breads, wheat germ, cereals, oranges, grapefruits.
Niacin, also known as nicotinic acid or Vitamin B3, is found in every cell of the body. It is necessary for energy production and to maintain the normal functioning of skin, nerves and the digestive tract. It can be manufactured by the body from the amino acid tryptophan. However, the amount needed by the body will usually exceed the amount that the body can produce and it is necessary to consume niacin from foods.
Baby's Only Organic® Formulas: 1100 mcg (per 100 calories)
Good Food Sources: poultry, fish (especially tuna and salmon), beef, peanuts and peanut butter, seeds, potatoes.
Pantothenic Acid
Pantothenic acid is also known as Vitamin B5. It is involved in numerous chemical reactions in the body and is essential for the metabolism of fat and sugars. Pantothenic acid is also involved in the manufacture of chemicals that regulate nerve functions.
Baby's Only Organic® Formulas: 450 mcg (per 100 calories)
Good Food Sources: meat, fish, poultry, egg yolk, whole grain cereals, dried beans and peas (legumes).
B Vitamins
Riboflavin: also known as Vitamin B2, is found in every cell of the body and is needed for energy production. It also helps to maintain vision and the metabolism and proper functioning of skin and nerve cells.
Baby's Only Organic® Formulas: 100 mcg (per 100 calories)
Good Food Sources: milk and dairy products, enriched breads, eggs, meats (especially organ meats like liver), green leafy vegetables, grains.
Thiamin: This is also known as Vitamin B1 and is important for the normal functioning of the nervous system. Thiamin also participates in the body's ability to use protein and sugars for energy production.
Baby's Only Organic® Formulas: 100 mcg (per 100 calories)
Good Food Sources: whole grain and enriched grain products, pork, seafood, cereals.
Vitamin B6: This can also be referred to as pyridoxine or pyridoxal. This vitamin influences many body functions including the regulation of blood sugar levels, the manufacturing of hemoglobin in red blood cells which carries oxygen to all body cells, and the functioning of the nervous system. As protein intake increases, so does the body's need for Vitamin B6. Also, an adequate Vitamin B6 intake decreases the requirement for niacin from food sources because it aids in the conversion of tryptophan to niacin.
Baby's Only Organic® Formulas: 60 mcg (per 100 calories)
Good Food Sources: chicken, fish, pork, liver, whole grains, cereals, spinach, sweet and white potatoes, bananas, prunes, watermelon.
Vitamin B12: This is also known as cobalamin because it contains the mineral cobalt. It is crucial in the reproduction of every cell in the body because it is needed to make DNA, the genetic material required for life. Vitamin B12 is essential for normal growth, healthy nerve tissue, and the formation of blood cells.
Baby's Only Organic® Dairy & LactoRelief Formulas: 0.2 mcg (per 100 calories)
Baby's Only Organic® Soy Formula: 0.45 mcg (per 100 calories)
Good Food Sources: All foods of animal origin (meat, fish, poultry, eggs, milk and other dairy products) and seafood.
Vitamin C
Vitamin C is also known as ascorbic acid. Vitamin C has received a lot of attention because of its major role in the body as an antioxidant, a substance that prevents damage to cells from free radicals and pollutants, and as a protector against infections, particularly the common cold. Vitamin C plays a role in nerve transmission, tissue repair, the conversion of cholesterol to bile acids, and the enhancement of iron absorption. Vitamin C is used by the body to make collagen, the connective tissue in skin, ligaments and bones.
Baby's Only Organic® Formulas: 20 mg (per 100 calories)
Good Food Sources: citrus fruits, berries, melon, peppers, dark green leafy vegetables, sweet potatoes, plaintains, tomato and tomato products.
Inositol is not a true vitamin because the body can manufacture what it needs. However, it is often considered a water-soluble member of the vitamin B family. Inositol works with choline to help transport fat from the liver. It also helps maintain cell membranes and is involved in the proper functioning of the nervous system.
Baby's Only Organic® Dairy & LactoRelief Formulas: 5 mg (per 100 calories)
Baby's Only Organic® Soy Formula: 15 mg (per 100 calories)
Good Food Sources: liver, soybeans, eggs, whole grains, nuts, bananas, vegetables.
Choline is not a true vitamin because the body can manufacture small amounts of it. However, it must be consumed from foods to meet overall body needs especially during times of rapid growth and development such as pregnancy, lactation, and early childhood. Choline is an essential nutrient necessary for the structure and function of all cells in the body.
Baby's Only Organic® Formulas: 12 mg (per 100 calories)
Good Food Sources: beef liver, egg yolk, peanut butter and peanuts, soybeans and soy products.
Although the major function of calcium is the formation and maintenance of bones and teeth, it is also needed to keep the heart pumping, muscles moving, and nerves communicating. Calcium helps regulate the passage of nutrients in and out of cells, assists in normal blood clotting, and is important to normal kidney functioning.
Baby's Only Organic® Dairy & Soy Formulas: 135 mg (per 100 calories)
Baby's Only Organic® LactoRelief Formula: 84 mg (per 100 calories)
Good Food Sources: milk and dairy products, fish with edible bones (such as sardines and salmon), oysters, tofu, dark leafy green vegetables.
This teams with calcium to aid in bone and teeth formation, kidney function, and heart contraction. The balance of calcium and phosphorus is important in the body, especially in early childhood, to ensure that the team works together well in keeping the body's chemical balance.

As blood passes through the tiny air sacs in the lung, oxygen attaches itself to the iron in the blood. That's how oxygen is carried to all parts of the body. Iron combines with protein and copper to make hemoglobin, a necessary component of red blood cells that carries oxygen to the cells. Iron also is a component of myoglobin, a protein that stores oxygen specifically in muscle tissue. Approximately 90% of iron in the body is conserved and reused every day.
Baby's Only Organic® Formulas: 1.8 mg (per 100 calories)
Good Food Sources: meat (especially organ meats like liver), dried fruits (raisins, apricots), nuts, green leafy vegetables.
This is needed for cell growth and repair, digestion and metabolism of nutrients, and is vital to the development of the reproductive organs. It also helps regulate the body's immune response to infection and aids in wound healing.

Good Food Sources: whole grains and cereals, nuts, leafy vegetables, molasses, soybeans, sunflower seeds, and tea.
This is an electrolyte and works with sodium to regulate the body's waste balance, transmit nerve impulses, and regulate muscle contraction including the heart muscles. It is essential for metabolism and the release of insulin. In babies and young children who have diarrhea or vomiting, an oral electrolyte solution such as PediaVance® containing a balance among sodium, potassium and chloride is usually recommended to help prevent the body from becoming dehydrated due to a deficiency in these electrolytes.
Baby's Only Organic® Dairy & LactoRelief Formulas: 120 mg (per 100 calories)
Baby's Only Organic® Soy Formula: 140 mg (per 100 calories)
Good Food Sources: bananas, citrus fruits, dried fruits, deep yellow vegetables, potatoes, milk, bran cereal.
The primary role of sodium in the body is to maintain fluid balance. Sodium is an electrolyte and works with potassium and chloride to conduct electrical currents in the body and keep tissue fluids in balance. A deficiency of sodium is rare but loss of sodium through diarrhea, vomiting, or excessive sweating can cause dehydration, muscle cramps, weakness, and headaches. This is especially critical in babies and young children and the reason for use of an oral electrolyte solution such as PediaVance® with a balance of sodium, potassium and chloride when a child has diarrhea and vomiting.
Baby's Only Organic® Formulas: 30 mg (per 100 calories)
Good Food Sources: salt, milk, processed foods such as luncheon meats.
This is an electrolyte and helps to maintain fluid balance in the body and also is a component of the stomach juices (hydrochloric acid) needed for digestion of foods. A deficiency of chloride is rare but loss of chloride through diarrhea, vomiting, or excessive sweating can cause an upset in the body's fluid balance resulting in dehydration. In babies and young children who have diarrhea or vomiting, an oral electrolyte solution such as PediaVance® containing a balance among sodium, potassium and chloride is usually recommended to help prevent the body from becoming dehydrated.
Baby's Only Organic® Dairy & LactoRelief Formulas: 80 mg (per 100 calories)
Baby's Only Organic® Soy Formula: 60 mg (per 100 calories)
Good Food Sources: salt, milk, processed foods such as luncheon meats.
Carbohydrates are one of the crucial dietary sources of energy that support the brain, enable muscular contractions, and provide the fuel necessary for a baby's and toddler's rapid growth, especially through 24-months of age. Each gram of carbohydrate provides 4 Calories. So it is important for a child to get adequate amounts of carbohydrates each day from good food sources.
Carbohydrates are sometimes simply called sugars or starches. They are classified scientifically as monosaccharides, disaccharides, or polysaccharides.
Monosaccharide is a one molecule sugar (referred to as a simple sugar or simple carbohydrate). Examples are glucose (sometimes called dextrose), fructose (sometimes called fruit sugar), and galactose. Glucose is the major fuel needed by the body for energy. This is why intravenous fluids (IVs) used in medical situations contain glucose (dextrose).
Disaccharide is made up of two monosaccharides (referred to as a simple sugar or simple carbohydrate). Lactose (sometimes called milk sugar) is made by the joining of one glucose molecule with one galactose molecule. Sucrose (also called table sugar) is made by joining one molecule of fructose with one molecule of glucose. The body breaks down disaccharides into monosaccharides and then converts these to glucose providing needed energy for the body. Baby's Only Organic®LactoRelief and Soy formulas do not contain lactose; none of our formulas contain sucrose.
Polysaccharide contains more than two sugar molecules. Examples of polysaccharides include organic brown rice syrup, as is found in Baby's Only Organic® formulas, corn syrup, molasses, and starches. Polysaccharides are often called complex sugars or complex carbohydrates.
Simple sugars are quickly digested and absorbed by the body into the bloodstream. As sugar levels rise in the blood, the pancreas secretes the hormone insulin. Insulin is needed to move the sugar from the blood into the cells where the sugar is then used for energy. When this process goes fast, a feeling of hunger will more likely occur sooner. When it occurs slower, the body appears to be satisfied from hunger longer. Simple sugars usually cause blood sugar levels to rise quicker than complex sugars and increase the production and release of insulin by the pancreas. If the sugar in the bloodstream is not used by the body for energy, then it is stored as fat.
The longer the carbohydrate length, the slower the body breaks it down and, thus, the slower the absorption of the sugar from the intestinal tract into the bloodstream. If there is a slower absorption of the sugar, there is a slower release of insulin. Also, a slower digestion lets the body utilize the sugar for energy and there's less potential for the sugar to be converted into fat.
Breast Milk is unique in its properties and cannot be duplicated. There are many unique compositional features in breast milk that result in its easy digestion by babies, including factors that help the breakdown of nutrients and their absorption in the gastrointestinal tract. There is no comparing the lactose digestion of a breast fed baby to that of a formula fed baby because manufactured formulas do not contain the many other compositional features of breast milk.
Added Lactose The lactose used in formulas is derived from cow's milk without the benefit of the unique features of human breast milk. In formulas containing only lactose as the source of carbohydrate, some of the lactose comes into the formula naturally as a part of the cow's milk and the remainder is added lactose. The added lactose brings the total carbohydrate level to the requirement needed in a formula. In other words, the amount of lactose that comes in naturally with the cow's milk does not totally meet the needs of a baby and additional lactose must be added. The only lactose contained in Baby's Only Organic® Dairy Formula is naturally occurring lactose derived from organic cow's milk.
Organic Brown Rice Syrup The carbohydrate source added to Baby's Only Organic® formulas is organic brown rice syrup. Rice is gluten-free and is known to be a relatively non-allergenic food and is well tolerated by babies. In fact, rice is the least allergenic of all grains. Organic brown rice syrup also offers the benefit of slower digestion and absorption providing a steadier level of sugar being absorbed into the bloodstream, a more even production and release of insulin, and a more even supply of energy to the body's cells. In addition, Nature's One® organic brown rice syrup is grown and processed without the use of chemicals.
Organic brown rice syrup is slightly sweeter than lactose but significantly less sweet than sucrose (table sugar) or cane sugar. The medical community has expressed concern over using cane sugar in formulas because it is five times sweeter than lactose and could pose health or medical issues related to obesity or dental caries. The carbohydrates in Baby's Only Organic® Dairy Formula consist of 35% naturally occurring lactose from the organic non-fat cow's milk and 65% organic brown rice syrup.
Baby's Only Organic® LactoRelief & Soy Formulas are the only lactose-free formulas in the U.S. that do not contain corn syrup or sucrose (table sugar). Baby's Only Organic® Dairy Formula contains naturally occurring lactose without the added lactose as found in leading brand formulas. The chart below explains the primary differences between the three formulas manufactured by Nature's One®.

*Do not use for children with galactosemia.
Lactose Intolerance Unlike other formula makers, Nature's One® prefers to add organic brown rice syrup to its Dairy-based formula rather than more lactose. There are many children and adults who either lack or do not produce adequate levels of the enzyme lactase which is necessary to digest lactose. For example, preterm babies are often fed a lactose-free formula because of their inability to manufacture adequate lactase. When there are inadequate levels of lactase in the gastrointestinal tract, this is referred to as lactose intolerance. Symptoms include bloating, flatulence, loose stools, and in some cases diarrhea. If a baby does not produce enough lactase, then lactose will be a problem. Also, following an illness that causes diarrhea, such as the flu, the intestinal tract's ability to make lactase is compromised. This is often why healthcare professionals will recommend a lactose free formula for children who have had a bout of diarrhea.
There is also a medical condition called galactosemia whereby a person cannot digest galactose, which is part of lactose. As noted previously, lactose is made of galactose and glucose. For people with galactosemia, they MUST avoid any dairy product or other foods that contain lactose and galactose. Baby's Only Organic® Soy formula is appropriate for babies with galactosemia.
Baby's Only Organic® Dairy & Soy Formulas: 10.8 g (per 100 calories)
Baby's Only Organic®LactoRelief Formula: 10.7 g (per 100 calories)
Proteins are essential to life and are necessary for the body's manufacturing and maintenance of all cells and tissues, including organ and brain development, and the making of essential body constituents such as hormones and enzymes. If excess protein is consumed and not needed by the body, it is converted to fat and stored by the body as a potential future energy source. Each gram of protein provides 4 Calories.
Proteins are made up of amino acids; there are 20 amino acids. Baby's Only Organic® formulas (Dairy, Dairy-LactoRelief and Soy) provide all of the essential and non-essential amino acids needed to support growth and development.
The protein source in Baby's Only Organic® Dairy Formula is organic non-fat dried cow's milk and the source in Baby's Only Organic® LactoRelief Formula is organic milk protein concentrate. When human breast milk is unavailable for a baby, the recommendation is to use a dairy-based formula. A cow's milk (dairy- based) formula is recommended because the proteins are whey (the liquid protein portion) and casein (the curd protein portion), which are proteins found in human milk. Baby's Only Organic® Dairy Formula and LactoRelief Formula consist of 18% whey and 82% casein.
Taurine is not an amino acid but an amino acid derivative. Taurine functions as an antioxidant and is involved as a part of bile acids in early childhood. Taurine is abundant in human milk, but not in cow's milk protein or soy protein. Taurine is added to Baby's Only Organic® formulas to the level in breast milk.
When children have an allergic reaction to cow's milk protein and soy protein, hydrolyzed formulas are often recommended. The cow's milk protein has been treated to break down the protein, which reduces the allergy potential of the protein. There are presently no organic hydrolyzed formulas on the market.
Baby's Only Organic® Dairy Formula: 2.6 grams protein (per 100 Calories)
Baby's Only Organic®LactoRelief Formula: 2.1 grams protein (per 100 Calories)
Baby's Only Organic® Soy Formula: 2.8 grams protein (per 100 Calories)
Good Food Sources: Animal meats, fish, dairy products, soybeans, legumes, nuts
Fatty Acids
The term "lipid" refers to compounds including oils, waxes, animal fats and triglycerides that do not dissolve in water. Lipids are most commonly referred to simply as fats.
Fats constitute the principal structural material of all living cells and are an important source of energy. Healthy skin and hair are maintained by fat. Fat also helps the body absorb and move the fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K through the bloodstream. Dietary fat intake provides needed essential fatty acids to the body. These essential fatty acids are linoleic acid and linolenic acid. These are fatty acids that the body cannot make and which must be derived from foods.
Fats provide 9 Calories per gram, more than twice the amount of energy provided by a gram of carbohydrate or protein. An excess of dietary Calories provided by carbohydrates, proteins or fats will be stored in the body as adipose tissue. Adipose tissue serves as insulation for the body's cells and organs but an excess of fat can lead to overweight and obesity.
Triglycerides are the chemical form of fats that exist in foods as well as in the body. Animal fats, such as butter and lard, tend to be solid or semisolid at room temperature and are more saturated than fats from plant sources. Fats from plant sources are usually liquid at room temperature and are called oils. Most plant oils are made up of unsaturated fatty acids with the exception of coconut, palm, and palm kernel oils. There are two types of unsaturated fats:
• Monounsaturated fats: Examples include olive and canola oils.
• Polyunsaturated fats: Examples include fish, safflower, sunflower, corn, and soybean oils.
Fats are important nutrient for babies and young children. They are needed to support growth, development and energy needs. A child who is not eating or drinking foods with adequate amounts of essential fatty acids can develop a fatty acid deficiency. This is one reason why healthcare professionals strongly advise against the use of skim or low fat milks during early childhood. Signs of an essential fatty acid deficiency include poor growth, scaly skin lesions, dry brittle nails, dandruff, and lack of hair luster.
More than 98% of the fat in human breast milk is in the form of triglycerides. The most abundant triglycerides in breast milk are the saturated fatty acids oleic acid and palmitic acid. It also contains high proportions of the essential fatty acids linoleic fatty acid and linolenic fatty acid. Human milk also contains the non-essential polyunsaturated fatty acids, DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and ARA (arachidonic acid).1
The fat blend of Baby's Only Organic® formulas consist of organic high oleic sunflower oil, organic coconut oil, and organic soybean oil. This blend was developed because the percentages of the various types of fats are similar to breast milk. This combination of oils also provides appropriate levels of the essential fatty acids, linoleic acid (LA) and alpha-linolenic acid (ALA).
Baby's Only Essentials® DHA and ARA Fatty Acid Supplement is formulated specifically for babies and toddlers using the proper balance of DHA & ARA that meet the 1:2 ratio requirements established for a baby less than two years of age.2
