Bloom & Blossom™ Ultra Gentle™ Infant Formula Now Available On Amazon.com And In Select ...

GEORGIA, Vt., Sept. 9, 2015 /PRNewswire/ — Perrigo Nutritionals, one of the nation’s largest manufacturers of infant formula, today announced the launch of Bloom & Blossom Ultra Gentle Formula, an innovative, easy-to-digest formula for babies experiencing fussiness, gas, or crying.

Ideal for sensitive tummies, Bloom & Blossom Ultra Gentle was developed with 95 percent less lactose than traditional milk-based formulas and 100 percent partially hydrolyzed (broken down) whey to make digestion easier.  This means fewer fussy feedings and more potential bonding time with baby. 

“Infant feeding is about more than sustenance; it can also play a critical part in determining an infant’s quality of life,” explains Dr. Jenifer Lightdale, MD, MPH, division chief, pediatric gastroenterology, hepatology and nutrition and UMass Memorial Children’s Medical Center. “It is not uncommon for infants with developing digestive systems to have difficulty tolerating certain proteins in their diets, which can lead to fussiness, gas, and crying. Tolerance issues can result in a less than ideal feeding experience for both the baby and the parent. Parents should know there are a number of dietary changes, as well as specialized infant formula options, which can help address protein sensitivities in infants.”

Bloom & Blossom Ultra Gentle Formula offers complete nutrition for a baby’s first year and features a 1-2-3 combination.  First, Ultra Gentle contains 100 percent partially hydrolyzed whey protein.  Second, it contains prebiotics to support digestive health and the immune system.  Third, the formula contains 95 percent less lactose than standard milk-based formulas.

Additional benefits include:

Bloom & Blossom Ultra Gentle is available at www.amazon.com and at select Giant Eagle retail locations. The suggested retail price is $28.99 for a 22.5 ounce tub.
