A. its formula milk not cow milk

Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children2 years ago

A. Cow's milk should be introduced to the child only after 1 year of age . Earlier introduction of cows milk can lead to microfy bleeding in the digestive tract. It's also deficient in iron vit E,C and essential fatty acid. It's also lacking ideal proportion of protein and fats present in breast milk or any formula milk .
