Application

Pediatricians prescribe therapeutic sour milk to babies if the peanut has a violation or decrease in digestive function. The doctor should explain to the parents why such a measure is required, whether a complete transition to artificial nutrition is needed or whether it is necessary to alternate different types of mixtures, how long the baby will eat food containing prebiotics.

The task of fermented milk nutrition is the correction of the digestive tract. With diathesis (atopic dermatitis) and various manifestations allergies, it is not used. In the case when an allergic reaction to cow protein or other types of products is detected, hypoallergenic products are needed. A balanced intestinal microflora is the way to a full-fledged weight gain, healthy growth and development of the baby.

normalization of intestinal microflora;
reduces the likelihood of allergies;
facilitates the absorption of lactose;
the frequency and abundance of regurgitation decreases.

Despite the diversity beneficial effect on children's body, the remedy is the cause of negative manifestations. These unwanted reactions include:

many children do not like the unusual taste of the new food and children often refuse to eat it;
with abundant regurgitation, antireflux mixtures are preferred, since the sour-milk analogue, due to the ability to lower the acidity of the stomach, often causes an increase in unpleasant manifestations;
if adaptability is not observed, it causes acidosis in a child;
in rare cases, they can cause allergies.

Meals are fully and partially adapted. The first option is intended for children from birth to 6 months, indicated on the package with the number 1.

Block of questions and answers

Among baby food for newborns, fermented milk formula occupies a special, very honorable place. It belongs to medicinal products and allows you to correct functional digestive disorders in the smallest - from birth to a year.

It cannot be introduced into complementary foods on its own - only on the recommendations and appointment of a pediatrician who discovered some deviations in health in the baby. Parents should not be afraid of switching to this type of feeding, because it brings with it exceptional benefits.

Peculiarities

The main advantages of fermented milk mixtures lie in their composition and functionality. The ingredients are selected in such a way that they fit perfectly into the work of a small organism and normalize the health of the child during the period of exacerbated diseases and disorders.

The pediatrician prescribing such nutrition takes into account the condition, age and individual characteristics baby. How is it different from the usual?

The most important advantage of fermented milk mixtures is that they belong to the category of therapeutic, adapted products that are used exclusively for the pediatrician's prescription in case the child has health problems.
The composition contains probiotics, which contribute to the growth of favorable flora in the intestine and prevent the development of pathogenic bacteria in it.
For production, starter cultures of live bacterial cultures are used.
Requirements for their quality are determined by the sanitary legislation of Russia, the European Union and WHO recommendations.
These can only be strains of microorganisms isolated from humans and not having a toxic and pathogenic effect.
Bacteria should be as resistant to external influence and maintain stability during preparation and storage of the product.
Getting into digestive tract child, probiotic microorganisms secrete lactic acid, which stimulates the digestive tract, increases appetite, normalizes stools, eliminates colic.

Here is how fermented milk formula differs from the usual one: its useful composition, which necessarily contains lactobacilli and probiotics, as well as therapeutic effect on the body of children from birth to one year. To switch to such a diet, special medical indications and the appointment of a pediatrician are needed.

Keep in mind. There are many fermented milk products on the market (kefir, yogurt, narine), but they are not baby food, as they are not adapted to the needs and characteristics of small organisms. They contain a whole, non-fermented protein cow's milk, which causes in children up to a year allergic reactions and functional disorders of the gastrointestinal tract.

Indications

The pediatrician who appointed the transition to a new diet should explain to the parents why the fermented milk mixture is needed specifically for their baby. It is usually used for reducing and disturbing the functions of digestion.

Medical indications for its use by children up to a year are:

the risk of infection;
with lactase deficiency;
functional disorders in digestion;
stomach dyspepsia (poor ability to digest food);
with diarrhea and constipation;
decreased appetite or none at all;
against this background - poor weight gain;
acute intestinal infections;
with colic;
reduced immunity;
rickets;
intestinal dysbiosis.

But with allergies, sour-milk mixtures are not prescribed. Yes, they are perfectly absorbed, do not cause rejection on the part of a small organism. But their main task is to correct the work of the gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, with this disease, they are most often prescribed not, but an adapted hypoallergenic diet.

Studies have shown that the use of baby food with lacto- and bifidobacteria increases the absorption of iron from the gastrointestinal tract, improves the absorption of protein and calcium. Toddlers begin to recover and develop in accordance with their age characteristics keeping up with peers.

Kinds

Parents should know what fermented milk mixtures are, so as not to purchase a product that will turn out to be useless. There are many types of such baby food on the market today. They differ in composition, consistency, degree of adaptation and the fact that they are developed for children of different ages.

According to the degree of adaptation:

fully adapted fermented milk formula for babies under the age of six months;
partially adapted food for children after 8 months.

According to the age:

the number "1" on the package means that these are fermented milk formulas for babies, which can be given from birth to six months;
the number "2" is sour-milk mixtures for children up to a year old, starting from 6 months.

By consistency:

dry fermented milk mixture, which must be diluted with water (the proportions are indicated in the instructions), has long term suitability, the market is represented by the most famous brands- Nan, Nutrilak, Nutrilon, Nutricia, Similac, etc.;
liquid, which must be used within 2-3 days (represented by Agusha, Bifilin).

Finding fermented milk formulas on the modern market in accordance with the age of the child, individual preferences (liquid or dry forms) and the financial capabilities of the parents is not difficult. The choice is greatly facilitated by the recommendations of pediatricians who can prescribe a specific product.

Feeding rules

You need to know how to introduce fermented milk mixture into the child's diet so that it does not harm his health. If this is done abruptly and in large quantities, the opposite effect will be obtained, i.e., the digestion of the crumbs will be even more upset. Main principle here - gradualness and exact observance of all medical recommendations.

If the fermented milk mixture was prescribed as a prophylaxis, only 2 feedings are completely replaced with it - the second and last.
For constipation and diarrhea, which are intermittent, it is recommended to alternate "through one". For example, the 1st, 3rd and 5th feedings are carried out using breast milk familiar to the child (adapted mixture). And the 2nd and 4th - using a product with lactobacilli.
If it is prescribed for treatment, feeding is gradually replaced entirely.
It should be borne in mind that such nutrition enhances regurgitation in babies up to 3 months, so it is rarely prescribed as the main one at this age.
The duration of use is determined by the pediatrician and averages 2-3 months.
Many parents ask if it is possible to feed only with fermented milk formula: with poor health and a complete replacement of all feedings as prescribed by a doctor - yes.
Meals are prepared immediately before feeding in accordance with the instructions.
An open jar is stored for 3 weeks in a dry, cool place at temperatures from 0°С to +25°С and air humidity not more than 75%.

For how long and how to give the fermented milk mixture, the doctor should tell. It is he who adjusts the period of application, taking into account the condition of the baby. If he began to gain weight well, reached his age norm, digestive problems disappeared, you can switch back to the food that was before, but there is no particular need for this.

Rating

The list of fermented milk mixtures includes products of domestic and foreign production. Their compositions are very similar, they have approximately the same effect on the child's gastrointestinal tract.

Nan. Nestle (Switzerland). $7.5.
Nutrilak. Nutritek (Russia). $5.2.
Nutrilon. Nutricia (Holland). $8.1
Similac. Denmark / Spain / Ireland. $7.6.
Agusha. Russia. $0.6.
Bifilin. Russia. $0.9
Biolact adapted. Russia. $7.
Soy acidolact. Russia. $3.9.

However, no rating can determine which of these products will be optimal in one case or another. As a rule, the best fermented milk mixture is the one that the child willingly eats and which really normalizes digestion and improves the condition of the sick person.

Minor differences in the composition and functions of these products can be found in a more detailed review.

Review of the best

After identifying digestive problems, the pediatrician will tell parents which fermented milk formulas for newborns are better - Russian or foreign-made, with or without oils, enriched with bioadditives or containing only lactobacilli. Most often, doctors recommend several products, giving parents the right to choose the brand and brand according to their financial capabilities.

A small overview of the most popular and well-proven ones will help parents understand the variety of assortment.

Nan

It is represented by two products: "Nan 1 Sour Milk", "Nan 2 Sour Milk". Produced by the famous Swiss company Nestle.

Very useful for babies with digestive disorders:

normalizes microflora;
protects against infections;
increases the absorption of protein, lactose, calcium, iron.

This is facilitated by a useful and adapted composition:

B. lactis + L. reuteri - a combination of the only two probiotics recommended from birth due to absolute safety;
B. Longum + L. Rhamnosus - this tandem of probiotics is used for children who are already six months old, it performs not so much curative as protective and preventive functions.

Often Nan is even assigned healthy baby who lacks mother's milk and even in its absence. This fermented milk mixture has a pH level of 4.75–4.9, as in newborns, therefore it does not make any negative adjustments to digestion.

Nutrilak

"Nutrilak fermented milk" is an adapted dry mix that fully meets the energy needs of a baby from birth to a year. Indications for use:

restoration of microflora after antibiotics;
transferred intestinal infections;
prevention of dysbacteriosis;
functional digestive disorders: diarrhea, constipation, colic.

Nutrilak has a very rich and useful composition:

strains of live bifidobacteria, lactobacilli, which have a beneficial effect on the intestinal microflora and strengthen the immune system;
nucleotides are a necessary plastic material for microflora;
omega-3, 6 fatty acids are needed for immunity, normal formation of the central nervous system and organs of vision;
lutein protects the small organism from harmful effects ultraviolet;
antioxidant complex, which includes vitamins and minerals: ascorbic acid, B vitamins, zinc, taurine, selenium.

Another advantage of Nutrilak is that it does not contain starch and sucrose, which are poorly absorbed by newborns.

Nutrilon

The Dutch baby food company Nutricia is represented on the market by two products - Nutrilon 1 Sour Milk, Nutrilon 2 Sour Milk. This is a dry formula for feeding babies from birth. Contains lacto- and bifidobacteria, thanks to which it effectively normalizes digestion, stimulates the growth of useful, healthy intestinal microflora.

In addition to them, in the composition you can find:

skimmed milk;
taurine;
maltodextrin;
lactose;
a mixture of vegetable oils: sunflower, rapeseed, palm, coconut;
leaven;
complex of vitamins and minerals.

The pH level of Nutrilon is 6.0-6.4.

Similac (Similac)

A very popular fermented milk mixture, which is represented by a wide range:

"Similac-1" - the main or additional food for children from birth to six months;
"Similac-2" - appointed by pediatricians from six months;
"Similac Premium-1" - to strengthen the immune system in weakened babies up to 6 months;
"Similac Premium-2" - a continuation of the previous product, used after six months;
"Similac NeoSure" - for feeding premature babies.

Similac contains:

live bacteria to improve intestinal microflora;
iron;
fatty acid;
proteins;
fats;
carbohydrates;
vitamin and mineral complex;
lysozyme;
taurine;
lactulose.

The production of the mixture was transferred several times to different countries, so on the packages you can find notes that the product was made in Ireland, Denmark or Spain. It contributes to the constant weight gain of the baby within age norms and also has a positive effect on general development. After all, in composition, it is as close as possible to breast milk.

Agusha

Russian-made fermented milk mixtures "Agusha 1" and "Agusha 2" are good for those who prefer domestic firms, whose product prices do not bite so much.

The composition includes:

whole milk;
lactose;
bifidoacidophilic starter;
fructose;
maltodextrin;
a mixture of vegetable oils: high oleic sunflower, corn, soybean, rapeseed, coconut;
cream;
concentrated whey protein;
nucleotides;
mineral and vitamin premix;
ordinary drinking water.

However, the composition of the Agusha mixture causes a lot of criticism from experts, since it is too artificial due to the abundance of vegetable oils and nutritional supplements that are completely unnecessary for such small children (such as concentrated whey protein).

Bifilin

Bifilin is a new fermented milk mixture produced in Russia. On the one hand, its composition is unique, since it contains bifidobacteria that can multiply, as well as their metabolic products. On the other hand, it is recommended even for adults to restore intestinal microflora.

This fact calls into question the benefits of the mixture for small stomachs, because the pH in children and adults is fundamentally different. Experts say that it is not adapted for the child's body, and do not recommend giving it to newborns.

All these products have passed all the necessary clinical studies and have earned the trust of the population and doctors. It is difficult to say which fermented milk mixture is better, because they are all very useful, adapted and balanced. Parents have to choose.

On the one hand, the products of Russian manufacturers are cheaper. But foreign ones are presented on the market in much larger quantities. In addition, it is well known that they are manufactured using the latest equipment and modern innovative technologies.

It is difficult to choose the right medical nutrition, as each child is individual. So do not rely on the experience of a neighbor or acquaintances: in this matter, you should be guided solely by the recommendations and appointment of a pediatrician.

Cooking instructions

It is very important to properly prepare the infant formula "NAN fermented milk". Instructions are on the outside of the food jar. The process of preparing fermented milk mixture "NAN" should be started immediately before feeding.

Conventionally, it can be divided into three stages:

Stage 1. Preparatory.

Wash the bottle.
Sterilize the bottle and nipple.
Open a jar of mixture. Here we immediately draw your attention to the fact that the fermented milk mixture "NAN" does not look like other mixtures - it is not crumbly. The mass is characterized by a certain compaction. Therefore, it is not worth being afraid of its appearance and blaming a store or supermarket for selling low-quality or expired products.

Stage 2. Main.

Pick up a jar of food and study in detail the recommended feeding table, which is shown on it.
Pour into a feeding vessel (sterilized bottle) ½ part of the water from the volume recommended in the table. Water should be boiled and cooled to 37 degrees.
Pour required amount(determined depending on the volume of liquid poured and indicated in the same table on the jar) measuring spoons of the dry mixture.
Shake the vessel until the dry mixture is completely dissolved and turns into a homogeneous mass.
Add the remaining ½ of the liquid to the bottle.
Shake again until a homogeneous mixture is formed. The mixture turns out to be quite thick, so you should not sound the alarm if you expected to see a liquid mass. And one more thing: after cooking, grains remain on the wall surface of the bottle, this is also the norm!

Important! You can give the baby only freshly prepared formula. It is strictly forbidden to use the one that remains from previous feeding sessions.

It is very important to observe the accuracy of the dosage. Otherwise, lumps will form in the mixture, which will prevent it from flowing through the nipple into the baby's mouth. Next, let's talk about how to give "NAS sour milk".

How to give formula

If the child has had an infectious disease, treatment with bactericidal drugs is inevitable. But, unfortunately, such medicines, on the one hand, help get rid of the infection, and on the other hand, they negatively affect the intestinal flora of the baby. Here "NAN sour milk" will come to the rescue. The mixture is recommended to be given as a prophylactic against digestive disorders. In this case, "NAN" is given to the baby once a day with a frequency of every day. Doses vary depending on the age group to which the child belongs.

When baby food "NAN" is prescribed by a doctor as a means to increase immunity, the mixture should be included in the daily diet of crumbs.

The dose is determined based on the age of the baby. As a rule, pediatricians recommend giving "NAN fermented milk" when there is an increased risk of developing infectious diseases, especially in cold autumn or the winter season.

Dairy products are not affected by pathogenic bacteria. Therefore, the NAN fermented milk mixture can also be taken as a protective agent against microbes, providing excellent absorption of substances and microelements vital for the child's body, in particular, proteins, iron and calcium. This is of particular importance during the introduction of complementary foods, when the likelihood of contact with dangerous microbes is high. In this case, "NAS" should be given simultaneously with the start of complementary foods every day, once or twice a day.

Also, dry baby food "NAN sour milk" is actively used as a remedy for constipation for children who are artificially fed from birth. The main indication for use is systematic constipation. At first, it is recommended to give "NAN" twice a day, and when the stool returns to normal, reduce to a single dose.

A mixture of "NAN" can also be used as the main means for feeding a baby. Due to the fact that the fermented milk product is quickly digested, it is recommended for children with an increased tendency to spit up. "NAN fermented milk" leads to accelerated emptying. “Is it possible to feed this mixture constantly?” - the question of many mothers. The answer is unequivocal: in this case it is allowed.

Storage features

You can store artificial baby food "NAN" for 18 months, provided that the packaging is not damaged. If the mixture is already open, then you can use it to feed your baby for no more than three weeks after opening the jar.

"NAS sour milk": reviews

Most mothers willingly confirm the manufacturer's statements regarding the beneficial effect of the NAN mixture on the children's body. "NAS" is indispensable assistant with intestinal dysbacteriosis, constipation, pain and colic. Separately, it is noted that the transfer of a child to artificial nutrition is not difficult, the baby quickly gets used to the pleasant sour-milk taste.

"NAS sour milk 1" reviews are the most positive. Many consumers emphasize its medicinal properties. The result of its use is the normalization of the intestinal microflora, the improvement of stool, the strengthening of immunity, and the reduction of the risk of infectious diseases. Apart from quality characteristics, the practicality of operation was also noted: a convenient jar made of durable material, a complete set with a measuring spoon, the overall characteristics of which were developed taking into account the size of the neck of a baby bottle. And the NAN mixture is also beneficial from an economic point of view - one jar is enough for a fairly long period.

"NAN sour-milk 1", reviews of which contain information regarding disgusting taste, poor solubility, impossibility of use as the main feeding, do not correspond to reality! Firstly, the mixture is sour-milk, that is, it cannot be sweet to please all mothers. Yes, yes, you read it right, that's right. Secondly, any pediatrician will refute the assertion that "NAS" cannot be used for constant feeding. Of course, there are certain indications, contraindications, etc., but this does not mean at all that "NAS" cannot be given to a child all the time.

Analyzing consumer reviews, one more thing can be said: the NAN mixture is characterized by satiety. And it is not just words. This is a conclusion made after conducting amateur experiments, when women gave the baby a mixture of "NAN" for dinner one day, and "Baby" the other day. The saturation time of a small organism with the first mixture significantly exceeds the second. Therefore, many mothers prefer to give "NAN" at night so that the child eats and sleeps soundly.

We have already discussed the advantages of dry mix. Let's move on to the disadvantages, if any, of course. Using "NAS sour milk" on your own, reading reviews about it, you can understand that there are no shortcomings as such. For some it is too much high price nutrition, and someone decided that the child was used to the mixture and did not want to eat anything else. Well, you see, these reasons are biased.

This fact was taken into account by manufacturers of baby food, as a result of which on the shelves with mixtures you can find the widest assortment range, a mind-boggling number of varieties that contain certain additives. There is no bad Nestle infant formula, because this Swiss manufacturer is the guarantor of quality nutrition. There are just mixtures that are not suitable for your baby. That is why it is so important to choose the right baby food.

Protein composition

"NAN" 1 and 2 are milk mixtures, and NAN 3 and 4 are dry milk drinks for drinking and cooking. An important difference between the products is the reduced protein content in mixtures due to whey demineralization. The ratio of whey proteins and casein is as follows:

in No. 1 - 70 to 30 (close to mother's milk, in which the proportion is 80 to 20);
in "NAN 2, 3" - 60 to 40 (like mature mother's milk).

The protein in NAN formulas and baby milk is called Optipro. Its presence reduces the risk of obesity by reducing the metabolic burden on the body. Valuable amino acids also contribute to this: taurine, gestidine, and others.

rapeseed low-erucic.

Also in the diet are polyunsaturated fatty acids called "smart lipids". The most valuable of them are DHA and ARA (docosahexaenoic and arachidonic acids), which are important for immunity, eyes and brain.

Carbohydrate composition

Lactose is an important carbohydrate component of the product. Combined with maltodextyrin (a fast-acting carbohydrate), it gives a sweet taste that babies love. Carbohydrate components provide the body of babies with the necessary energy, give long-term saturation, affect the density of the mixture (make it thicker). The manufacturer's milk does not contain sucrose ( cane sugar), which positively distinguishes the products from analogues.

Other components

The products contain live cultures of bifidobacteria BL. These are probiotics that are responsible for the formation of normal microflora in the walls of the large intestine, strengthening the immune system. NAN 2 mixtures also contain Denta Pro bacteria, which are responsible for the prevention of caries. They prevent the development of bacteria that destroy tooth enamel, colonize the digestive tract.

Therapeutic and prophylactic NAN mixtures and their composition

For the purpose of therapeutic diet therapy, sour-milk and other mixtures with the original composition are used. Pediatricians prescribe them for a certain time to correct the condition of the child. For therapeutic and prophylactic products, a similar composition is characteristic of the entire range of nutrition. However, there are also significant differences related to assignment types.
