Key Differences Between Kendamil UK Organic and Classic

What makes Kendamil Organic Cow formula stand out among other infant cow formulas is its dedication to clean, high-quality ingredients sourced from sustainable farms in the UK. This formula includes all the essentials for your baby's development:

• British Whole Milk: Sourced from Red Tractor-accredited farms, ensuring a natural, high-quality fat base.
• Lactose with a Low Glycemic Index: Closely mirrors the composition of natural breast milk, providing a naturally sweet taste babies love.
• Plant-Based DHA and ARA: Sustainably sourced from algae, eliminating fish oils.
• Prebiotics (GOS, FOS): Support healthy digestion and immunity.
• Essential Vitamins & Minerals: Including Vitamin A, C, D, and zinc to enhance immune function and growth.
• Allergy-Friendly A2 Milk: Found in Kendamil’s goat milk formulas, ideal for babies with sensitivities.

Both the Organic and Classic formulas are 100% Kosher and Halal approved. These certifications signify that Kendamil adheres to strict dietary laws and quality standards:

• Kosher Certification: Ensures the formula meets Jewish dietary laws, with rigorous oversight of ingredient sourcing and production processes to guarantee compliance.

• Halal Certification: Confirms the formula aligns with Islamic dietary requirements, using approved ingredients and manufacturing practices.

Each Kendamil formula is made to deliver an ideal blend of nutrients and gentle digestibility without unnecessary additives, focusing on providing pure nutrition that’s as close to breast milk as possible.

UK-made Formula Stages vs. the US-versions 

There are some key distinctions between the UK-made formula stages and the US versions. The UK-made Kendamil formulas are made with more specific stages to align closely with the nutritional needs of a newborn’s natural development in the first year. These three stages reflect each phase of a baby’s growth with precision.

These are the UK-made Kendamil Organic Cow Formula Stages: 

• Stage 1 - Infant Milk (0-6 Months): Designed as the perfect introduction to formula, delivering key nutrients from birth onward. This formula contains two main proteins: casein and whey. Like early breast milk, Kendamil Stage 1 Organic has a whey/casein ratio of 60/40
• Stage 2 - Follow-On Formula (6-12 Months): Formulated to meet your baby’s growing energy needs as they explore solids. Unlike Kendamil Organic Stage 1, Stage 2 is casein dominant (whey/casein ratio of 40/60).  This reflects the natural changes in breast milk and prepares your baby for weaning.
• Stage 3 - Toddler Formula (12+ Months): For toddlers ready to take on the world, this formula supports growth and development well into early childhood. Kendamil Organic Stage 3 is casein-dominant, with a casein/whey ratio of 75/25, like cow’s milk.

In addition to the Organic range, Kendamil offers the UK-made Classic Cow Milk Formula. This line is also available in three distinct stages, providing essential nutrition tailored to your baby's growth milestones:

• Stage 1 - Infant Milk (0-6 Months): Perfect for newborns, delivering all the key nutrients to support early development.
• Stage 2 - Follow-On Formula (6-12 Months): Ideal for babies starting solids, meeting their increased energy and nutritional needs.
• Stage 3 - Toddler Milk (12+ Months): Designed for active toddlers, ensuring sustained growth and balanced nutrition during the early years.
  
  

The US versions combine phases to offer two stages instead of 3: 

• Stage 1 (0-12 months)
• Stage 2 (12-36 months).

These two stages are less specific, covering a broader range of needs within each formula. This means that UK-made Kendamil formulas provide targeted nutritional support for each specific growth phase, adapting as infants’ dietary needs change over time. For parents who want formula specifically designed for every phase of their baby’s development, Kendamil’s UK-made formulas offer tailored, stage-by-stage nutrition to closely match the journey of newborn growth.
