FAQs about Loulouka Formula

Loulouka has changed its Stage 1 formulation. Here are answers to the questions you may have:

1. Why is DHA added to the new version of Loulouka?
   The EU stated a few years ago that from 2020/2021 all formulas need to have DHA (fish oil–for brain development and eye-sight improvement) and a new ratio of minerals/vitamins/protein.)
2. Loulouka now uses skimmed milk instead of whole milk. Why? And what does this mean for the fattiness of the formula?
   Loulouka now heats the fresh fat milk briefly to remove the non-essential fats. Each batch of fresh milk have different fat levels which makes it difficult to maintain the same level for each production. After the milk has been prepared, they add fatty essential bio-oils (rapeseed, sunflower and coconut). With regard to total fat, fatty acid profile, DHA amount, protein content, and the ratio of whey to casein, the recipes are optimally formulated to meet the needs of the respective age group and the legal requirements, respectively. In addition, the new formulations also contain BIO-galactooligosaccharides (GOS) as food fibers.
3. What are the benefits new version vs the old version of Loulouka?
   Mostly, Loulouka has spent the last few years doing research to meet the upcoming 2021 EU regulations. DHA (via fish oil) has been added for brain and eyesight development. The price per gram has also come down slightly.
4. Why is there is DHA but no ARA in the new formula?
   In the new EU law, DHA is mandatory and ARA is voluntarily.
5. Why are there prebiotics but no probiotics?
   Prebiotics are organic and important for gut health–and they are found in breast milk. Probiotics, on the other hand, are almost non-detectable in human milk.
6. Why has L-Carnitine been added?
   It is now mandatory per EU laws to formula to contain L-Carnitine.
