Infant formulas

Overview Food Sources Recommendations Side Effects
Alternative Names:
Formula feeding; Bottle feeding
Side Effects:
Improper mixing of infant formulas can result in abdominal pain, improper caloric intake, or other problems. Never water down the formula, as that can alter your baby's salt balance, which can cause seizures. Using the wrong type of formula for infants with special needs can cause the baby's condition to become worse.
