Prima Follow Up Formula Milk – Prima 1 & Prima 2

Description

When it comes to choosing the right nutrition for your baby, Prima Follow Up Formula Milk is a name Bangladeshi parents have come to trust. Manufactured by MG Nutritionals – a division of Murray Goulburn Co-operative Co. Ltd, Australia – and brought to local families by Abul Khair Consumer Products Ltd, Prima combines international dairy expertise with a formula designed specifically to support your baby through every stage of early growth.

Prima Follow Up Formula Milk is available in two stages, so you can choose the right formula as your baby grows – or select both together as your little one transitions from newborn to toddler.

Prima 1 – Infant Formula (0-6 Months)

Prima 1 is formulated for the earliest and most delicate stage of your baby’s life. It’s intended for use after birth for healthy infants who are deprived of breast milk, following your doctor’s advice – and should generally be followed as directed on the tin unless your doctor prescribes otherwise. Fortified with iron, Prima 1 supports healthy early growth during the first six months.

Prima 2 – Follow-Up Formula (6-24 Months)

Once your baby reaches 6 months, their nutritional needs shift as they begin exploring solid foods. Prima 2 is formulated to complement this gradually increasing, varied diet, delivering a balanced mix of protein, fat, and carbohydrates along with a broad spectrum of vitamins and minerals – including calcium, iron, zinc, magnesium, and vitamins A, C, D, E, K, and the B-complex group – to support healthy growth, strong bones, and a developing immune system through toddlerhood.

Important Note for Parents

Breast milk is the natural and ideal food for infants, and remains the best source of nutrition throughout the first 6 months of life. Prima Follow Up Formula Milk (Prima 1 or Prima 2) should only be introduced on the advice of your pediatrician or healthcare provider, and used as directed – Prima 1 for healthy infants deprived of breast milk from birth, and Prima 2 as part of a diversified diet from 6 months onward. Do not change your baby’s formula without consulting a qualified health professional.
