Similac Go and Grow Milk Based Formula Balanced Nutrition for Older Babies

Balanced Nutrition for Older Babies, 9 to 24 months

Now that your older baby is eating more table food, it can be hard to tell if she is getting enough nutrition. Data from a food survey* has shown that many older babies aren't getting the recommended amount† of key nutrients necessary for strong growth.

 

  • 20 percent of older babies aren't getting the recommended amount of calcium.

  • 26 percent aren't getting enough iron.

  • More than 75% aren't getting enough vitamin E.

 

*NHANES 1999-2000 Survey by the NIH/CDC.
†Proportion of toddlers ages 1 to 2 years old who are not meeting 100% of the currently recommended DRI (1997-2002).
