Enfamil® Infant
Enfamil Infant is a 20 Cal/fl oz milk-based, iron-fortified, routine formula for full-term infants 0-12 months. Enfamil Infant is clinically demonstrated to foster cognitive development through 5 years of age1. Enfamil Infant is patterned after mature breast milk* and offers proven clinical outcomes in 3 key areas: brain development, immune health and growth.
DHA at the clinically proven amount of 0.32% of total fatty acids, the same amount as the worldwide breast milk average2,‡, and double the amount found in the leading competitor's product‡
- Clinically proven to support mental and visual development
- Clinically shown to improve long-term cognitive outcomes through 5 years of age1,§
- Shown to improve respiratory health through the first 3 years of life when infants were fed through 12 months3,§
A blend of 2 prebiotics, GOS (galactooligosaccharides) and PDX (polydextrose), at 4 g/L is clinically proven to:
- Support immune health by promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria (bifidobacteria and lactobacilli)4,5
- Promote soft stools similar to those reported for breastfed infants6
Clinically proven growth similar to breastfed infants through 12 months7,§
Easy-to-digest 60:40 whey-to-casein ratio, patterned after mature breast milk8,*
Additional product features:
Kosher Dairy (OU-D), Halal
*Comparison based on whey-to-casein ratio of typical mature breast milk (15 days to 6 months after birth).
†Studies compared infants fed Enfamil with DHA and ARA vs. discontinued Enfamil without DHA and ARA; studied before the addition of prebiotics.‡
Average amount of DHA in worldwide breast milk is 0.32% ± 0.22% (mean ± standard deviation of total fatty acids) based on an analysis of 65 studies of 2,474 women2.
Enfamil Infant has not been shown superior to the leading competitor in supporting mental, visual and immune system development. The level of DHA in Similac Pro-Advance™ is ~0.15% of total fatty acids.
