Until recently in my country, baby formula for babies from 0 to 6 months had to be prepared with 3 grams of sugar or maltodextrin (and 2 ml of vegetal oil) every 100 ml (we had to add it manually along the formula powder). Because it was not enough. It changed because now we have access to formula that doesnt need to be modified to meet babies needs. Maybe the “per serving” in the article is misleading, and I didnt find a direct comparison between the exact product for the same age in the article. And, I don’t defend Nestlé either but I think the information given is very incomplete and only creates worry. English is not my first language.
