Life Changing Stories
My 1yo son has corn, dairy, and soy allergies. We’ve tried so many brands and types of plant based mills, but he’s rejected them all. Else has been so amazing for us! He loves it! He drinks it cold with a straw cup at meals and warmed in a bottle. It smells good and his breath smells so much better than with the our previous hypoallergenic formula. We’re huge fans of Else
My 13 month old hasn’t been able to tolerate regular milk, soy milk, oat milk, or any other formulas so I was very grateful when I found else formula! He loves it and I feel good about the nutrition it provides! When we first started it, he wasn’t sure about the flavor so we added a small bit of pure maple syrup. After doing that for a couple bottles, he drinks it without the maple syrup and gets excited for his bottles! Thank you else nutrition for making this formula!! Not sure what we would be giving him without it..
