Summary
This infant milk formula contains beneficial ingredients like organic skimmed milk and organic whey, which provide essential nutrients for growth. However, the presence of organic rapeseed and sunflower oils, both high in omega-6 fatty acids, is a concern due to their processing and potential health impacts.
