What’s in our baby porridge?

Aptamil Creamy Porridge is nutritionally tailored with our unique blend of GOS/FOS prebiotics and essential vitamins and minerals, to provide your baby with the goodness they need at this early stage of weaning.

What are prebiotics?

Prebiotic oligosaccharides, often shortened to prebiotics, are special carbohydrates that pass undigested beyond the tummy into the lower gut where they encourage your baby's friendly bacteria to thrive.

Prebiotics occur naturally in breastmilk and a variety of fruits, grains and vegetables, including bananas, artichokes, chicory and onions.

What are GOS/FOS prebiotics?

We add a unique prebiotic blend of galacto- (GOS) and fructo- (FOS) oligosaccharides to all Aptamil milks which are derived from chicory and lactose.

Essential vitamins and minerals

Aptamil Creamy Porridge also contains essential vitamins and minerals your baby needs to develop healthily, including iron, calcium and vitamins C, D and E.

* Contains only naturally occurring sugars
