Why Toddler Formula for an Infant May Be Fine

Loulouka has been our top choice for organic baby formula since it was invented a few years ago (by a parent who wanted a top-quality formula for his own son!). The biggest difference between Loulouka and the other formulas we consider Good Stuff is that Loulouka is free of palm oil.

Loulouka formula was developed over years by a team with more than a decade of experience in the industry. Through a highly-selective due-diligence process, only the best ingredients and sources that met rigorous standards were chosen for use.

From birth, babies need very specific vitamins, fats, and minerals. We believe Loulouka, with organic cows’ milk, is best-designed for a baby’s complex nutritional needs.

Stage 2 is formulated for babies 6 Months to 10 Months. View Stage 3 here.

Please Note: Loulouka is a European brand and the expiration date follows this format: dd-mm-yyyy as opposed to the American version that is mm-dd-yyyy.

FAQs about Loulouka Formula

Loulouka has changed its Stage 2 formulation. Here are answers to the questions you may have:

1. 1. Why is DHA added to the new version of Loulouka?
      The EU stated a few years ago that beginning 2020/2021 all formulas need to have DHA (fish oil – for brain development and eyesight 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 has 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 of the 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?
      DHA is mandatory and ARA is voluntary.
   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 for formula to contain L-Carnitine.
