Our oil blend includes sunflower oil to deliver a fatty acid profile that resembles the fatty acid profile in human milk as close as possible.

Rapeseed oil - Fat

Fats are crucial for healthy growth and development. No single plant-based oil has a comparable fatty acid profile to that of breast milk, so all infant formulas contain an oil blend. Our oil blend includes rapeseed oil to deliver a fatty acid profile that resembles the fatty acid profile in human milk as close as possible.
