The Cow's Milk Protein Allergy website has been developed by Nestlé Health Science who are the producers of specialised infant formulas for those with Cow's Milk Allergy. This website is intended to provide information on cow's milk protein allergy and is not intended to substitute or replace the advice of your healthcare professional. If you suspect your child has cow's milk protein allergy, please contact your GP for advice and support.
I am interested in learning more about Cow’s Milk Protein Allergy.
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
We believe that breastfeeding is the ideal nutritional start for babies and we fully support the World Health Organisation’s recommendation of exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months of life followed by the introduction of adequate nutritious complementary foods along with continued breastfeeding up to two years of age.
We also recognise that breastfeeding is not always an option for parents, we recommend that you speak to your healthcare professional about how to feed your baby and seek advice on when to introduce complementary feeding. If you choose not to breastfeed, please remember that such a decision can be difficult to reverse and has social and financial implications. Introducing partial bottle-feeding will reduce the supply of breast milk. Infant formula should always be prepared, used and stored as instructed on the label in order to avoid risks to a baby’s health.
