What’s in our milk?

Aptamil Growing Up milk 1+yr contains our unique blend of GOS/FOS prebiotics, vitamins and iron. And when used as part of a healthy balanced diet, it can help meet the increased nutritional requirements of toddlers aged 12 months to 2 years.

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.

Iron

Iron is essential for brain development and healthy blood and to help support your rapidly growing toddler. Aptamil Growing up milk 1+yr contains 40 times more iron than cows' milk. Without enough iron, the body is unable to produce enough haemoglobin – used to carry oxygen around the blood – which can result in anaemia.

Vitamin C

Vitamin C helps your toddler’s system to absorb the iron from their milk and food. That's why, as well as helping to protect cells and keep them healthy, Aptamil Growing Up milk 1+yr provides your toddler with 7 times more vitamin C than cows’ milk.

Vitamin D

Vitamin D works with calcium to enable the development of healthy bones. There are very few foods that naturally contain vitamin D and the main source is sunlight, which is seasonal, so it can be difficult to ensure your toddler gets enough. Two 150ml servings of Aptamil Growing Up milk 1+yr will provide your toddler with almost three quarters of their daily recommended amount² of vitamin D.

How to prepare our milk from powder

Our easy-to-follow guide shows you how to prepare our milk using our powdered formula.

Wash and sterilise bottles and teats according to manufacturer’s instructions. Wash your hands and wipe clean all surfaces to prevent the spread of germs.
Boil freshly run tap water and leave to cool for 30 mins, unless otherwise indicated on pack. Measure required amount of water (refer to on-pack instructions) into a sterilised bottle. Do not use repeatedly boiled water.
For accurate dosage, always use scoop provided and level off powder with built-in leveller (if provided). Alternatively, level with a clean, dry knife. Do not press extra powder into scoop.
Add correct measure of powder to water. Adding too many or too few scoops can be harmful. The feeding instructions on the pack will give you an indication of the number of feeds your baby may need per day.
Screw cap on bottle and shake well for 10 seconds to dissolve powder in water. If necessary, cool feed under cold running water. Remove seal and replace with sterilised teat. Test temperature of milk by allowing some drops to fall on your wrist. If it feels comfortable, it should be just right for your baby. Do not heat feeds in a microwave as hot spots can occur and cause scalding.
Use made-up feeds within two hours. Once used, discard any leftover milk, wash bottles and teats, and re-sterilise, ready for next feed.


Using our bottles of ready-made milk

If you’re out and about, a bottle of our ready-to-use Growing Up milk is a convenient option when feeding your toddler. All you need to remember to take with you is a clean beaker to pour the milk into. Some baby wipes or antibacterial gel may also be useful in case you need to clean your hands.
