Which nutrients are important?

The composition of high-quality infant foods has been developed over decades of research into breast milk. The scientists work closely together with international research laboratories, universities and clinics. Our own research focuses on special nutrients: LCP and indigestible dietary fibres (GOS/FOS). LCP are long-chain, polyunsaturated fatty acids. Your baby will not be able to produce them in sufficient quantities during the first few months of life and must therefore take them in with its food. Indigestible dietary fibres (GOS/FOS) are a special group of oligosaccharides - in simple terms carbohydrates that are not digested and enter the large intestine unchanged. There they serve the "good" intestinal bacteria - especially bifidus bacteria and lactobacilli - as food and thus promote the development of a bifidus-dominant intestinal flora. Milupa, to which Aptamil also belongs, was by the way the first manufacturer to succeed in developing the long-chain, polyunsaturated fatty acids LCP for infant foods. Today, LCP is an indispensable ingredient in high-quality dairy foods.

40 years of research make it possible

In order to give babies a healthy start in life, we have been pioneering our breast milk research for more than 30 years. With ENP research on early childhood nutrition, we are now focusing on the entire period of the first 1,000 days, from feeding pregnant women to feeding infants. Because we know that early childhood nutrition in this phase has a significant influence on development and thus also on the later health of the child (ENP means Early Life Nutritional Programming). Of the 400 or so experts, including doctors, nutritionists, chemists and biologists who work for us, many are therefore working to decipher the special nutritional needs of pregnant women, nursing mothers and babies right into infancy. The development of the immune system, brain development, the development of allergies, digestion as well as growth and development are the main areas of research.

We know from Nutricia research on early childhood nutrition: The most important time window for imprinting by early childhood nutrition lies in the first 1,000 days, calculated from fertilization to the 2nd birthday. Because in this time the most rapid growth of the central components of the organism - in particular energy metabolism, brain and immune system - takes place.

To better understand the impact of nutrition on development, our parent company has established a state-of-the-art Nutricia Research Center in Utrecht. Scientific networking plays a decisive role here: the centre cooperates with more than 200 universities, research centres and clinics - from Aachen in Germany to Zhengzou in China.

Combined with 40 years of knowledge about breast milk, all the knowledge gained from Nutricia research is incorporated into all our products and services to help you as parents seize the opportunity to do a lot today for the healthy future of your child.

Simply switch to the next generation Aptamil

Thanks to our pioneering research over 40 years, our team of more than 400 scientists has succeeded in developing the next generation of Aptamil. The patented formulas of Aptamil Pronutra-ADVANCE, Aptamil Profutura and Aptamil HA with SYNEO (our unique combination of GOS/FOS and Bifidus Breve) combine the proven benefits of Aptamil with unique innovations. Of course, you can switch from the previous Aptamil recipes to the more advanced recipes without hesitation.

The next generation Aptamil is starch-free in all stages, also in the follow-on milk, because - like breast milk - it contains only lactose as the only carbohydrate. The individual stages of Aptamil are also optimally adapted to the nutritional requirements of the respective age of the child.
Initial foods can be given as required, as the child wishes. In the complementary food age (after the 4th month) the energy requirement increases, but the child receives more energy and saturation through the complementary food.
