Do You Add Fortifiers To Your Baby Cereal? Isn’t That Bad?
Updated over a month ago

Yes, our baby cereal is fortified with essential vitamins and minerals, like iron, to support your baby's development. Fortification isn't harmful; it's designed to provide nutrients that babies might not get enough of from breast milk or other foods. These fortifiers, like iron, play a critical role in supporting brain development and preventing deficiencies, especially in breastfed babies. According to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, complementary foods that are rich in iron and zinc, including fortified infant cereals, are important components of a baby’s diet especially for babies 6M+ who are primarily fed human milk. We carefully crafted our baby cereal with nutrients to support brain and bone development, as well as immune function.

Iron helps to support neurological development. Calcium and Vitamin D help to build strong bones. Zinc helps to support growth and immune function.
