Enfamil 24 Cal. Infant Formula

What Is Enfamil 24 Calorie Formula for Infants?

Enfamil 24 Calorie Ready-to-Use Formula is a high-calorie, infant-safe feeding formula that shares the same basic nutrients as breast milk. This nourishing baby formula is milk-based and has an 80:20 whey-to-casein ratio -- the same ratio as breastmilk -- to encourage the healthy growth of underweight infants. Each fluid ounce serving of this product is packed with 24 easily digestible calories and fortified with iron. This product contains numerous nutrients, vitamins, and minerals that infants need to grow healthy and strong, both cognitively and physically. Enfamil 24 has been clinically proven to foster nervous, immunity, respiratory, and visual system development and health.

Enfamil 24 is a ready-to-use product, so parents don't need to worry about figuring out proportions. Using Enfamil 24 is as easy as opening a bottle and screwing on a bottle nipple. Bottle nipples are not included. Bottle nipples such as the Enfamil Standard-Flow Soft Nipple can be purchased from Vitality Medical.

Why Choose Enfimil 24?

Enfamil 24 is an all-in-one, nutrient-dense formula. This formula not only packs 24 calories per ounce to increase weight gain, but it also contains all of the other nutrients found in breastmilk needed for healthy growth, such as DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and inositol. DHA is an essential omega-3 fatty acid and inositol is a carbohydrate. Both are components of breastmilk and essential building blocks for healthy brain development. DHA has also been shown to encourage eye development and increase healthy respiratory and immune function. Enfamil 24 has been clinically proven to contain DHA at 0.32% of total fatty acids, the same amount found in breastmilk.

Just like breastmilk, Enfamil 24 also contains prebiotics. Prebiotics are a particular set of carbohydrates that gut bacteria feed on to replenish and multiply. Countless studies have shown that prebiotics contributes to infant digestive and immune health. Enfamil has been shown to soften stool within a week of use.

In addition to DHA, inositol, and prebiotics, Enfamil 24 contains essential vitamins and minerals, such as vitamin D. Vitamin D creates the circumstance in which calcium and phosphorus can be absorbed to build healthy bones. Vitamin D may also help protect infants against chronic diseases that form later in life. Enfamil contains 75 IU of vitamin D in each 100-calorie serving.

Enfamil 24 also contains healthy amounts of Vitamin B, an essential vitamin for both regulation of metabolism and nervous and pulmonary health. Especially important is Vitamin B12, which builds DNA and supports blood and nerve cell health. The vitamin E found in Enfamil protects cells from damage and assists with immune and vascular system function. Enfamil also includes choline, which encourages brain development and is essential for cognitive function. Lastly, Enfamil is fortified with iron to help red blood cells circulate oxygen throughout the body. These are just a few of the beneficial vitamins and minerals contained within Enfamil 24.
