By far the best toddler formula and worth the extra money!

I have a 4 year old son with cerebral palsy and developmental delays. Both these things make eating difficult and so be still relies on formula for a lot of his nutrition and calories. Earth's Best is the best tasting, and best smelling formula there is! No strong metal taste. And it's organic so it's a win all around. Definitely worth a little extra money, and other the formulas are still comparable in price and not nearly as good. It's the only kind we buy. Side note: If you are in a bind I've found the Happy Tot organic formula to be pretty good too. Not quite as wonderful but not bad at all.

Great nutrients, quality, and price!

This formula has been amazing! I have been pumping breastmilk and using this to supplement my month old. The similac they gave us in the hospital caused Lily to be very gassy and irritable. Once we started using this brand it was amazing the 180° she made. With our first child, Luna, we used The Honest Co and had no issues. They started putting DHA in their formula, and therefore I did not even consider it for Lily. I did a lot of research and this is the brand we landed on for price/quality/nutrients. I stopped the breast milk at 4 weeks and she is now exclusively on this brand and has had no issues. It mixes as well as the The Honest Co brand did and the Enfamil brand my mom uses on her foster daughter. FYI: During shipping the contents get moved around. The scoop was way down in the middle, but it was there!

Almost as good as the European brands

Used to buy European formula imported from Germany for my baby girl. She has a sensitive tummy and so we preferred the European brands with less additives. However, it became difficult to get it in a timely manner so in a crunch decided to try this. It took her a few days to adjust but overall she really likes this. The scooper is convenient because it's 1 scoop to 2 oz. water so less work versus doing one scoop to 1 oz. water. I have switched to this brand permanently now, it's great.

Best overall formula

Had to stop breastfeeding when babe was 2 months old. We first tried Earth’s Best in the red can, but she was still having reflux issues. Then we went the European route and used HiPP, but same issues. Finally we settled on this (gentle) and it’s been great! Barely spits up anymore and baby seems to love it. Next to European quality, this is the next best thing that you can buy in the US. Thank goodness!

Lactose as the main ingredient makes this formua easily digestible

Very good ingredients and much gentler on my baby’s tummy than the Gerber Gentle we started on. Both of my babies were preemies so they both struggled to digest formula (but what could I do—NICU babies generally don’t help their mommies produce a milk supply :( so I have had to supplement with formula). My first son handled the Gerber Gentle and was happy just spit up all the time, but my second spit up and had tummy troubles—lots of crying and clenching his little body. This switch to mainly lactose instead of mainly whey protein has really helped his digestion! He still spits up but no more of the painful gas and fussiness! This formula is thick but don’t let that scare you off. He digests it so well that he’s hungrier sooner than he was with the other formula, so the thickness doesn’t seem to be an issue. And when he spits up after a couple hours it’s mainly saliva so the milk has all been digested (if that makes sense. When they have trouble digesting, milk can remain in their tummies for 2-3 hours after a feeding). So this new formula really helped us.

Only Formula We Could Use

We love this Gentle formula for our 3 month old son. We initially had him on Earth's Best Sensitive, but he was really constipated and uncomfortable all day every day. We then switched to a goat's milk based formula and found out he is intolerant to goat's milk. So we found this formula and it has been a God send. No more constipation, fussiness, or discomfort. Completely recommended.

Best gentle organic formula (without corn syrup solids)

Our favorite organic formula for the price that we’ve tried since baby was a newborn (now 6+ months). Tried the Original formula (red can) gave her some extra gas and spitup so we ended up back to this one. Doesn’t smell fishy like the red can either. Baby girl is super healthy and in the 85%tile for her age... just on this formula alone! We are about to start solids and will continue to use this formula in addition to that. FYI: This specific formula is hard to find in stores so I usually just purchase this online for that convenience aspect too (plus best price is online).

Perfect for supplementing

Our baby is primarily breastfed but when we need a supplement we use this formula. It's been great she had zero issues tolerating it, the ingredients are great especially compared to many of the mainstream brands of formula, I feel confident giving my baby this formula and after a lot of research it definitely was the best option for us.

LOVE Earth's Best "Green Can" over the "Red Can!"

I am a breastfeeding mom to a 9 month old baby girl. She is my first and I have researched just about every formula out there for supplementing! I was determined to give her the best but also wanted something that we could afford! Before Earth's Best she drank a German formula called Holle Pre, a bare bones lactose based organic+ type of formula with added cream. It is a great formula however one day we ran out and I had to buy a U.S. formula. What was a mom to do? Enter Earth's Best. Why I like it... Carbohydrate source: Lactose! Also the primary carbohydrate found in breast milk. There are a plethora of reasons to choose a lactose based formula over a corn syrup solid/ corn maltodextrin based one. Lactose feeds the good bacteria in the gut as well as aids in calcium absorption! Taste: (BIG DIFFERENCE) Earth's Best no added DHA/ ARA (green can) is the way to go. The taste between the Red can and Green can of Earth's Best is night and day-due to the added DHA/ARA. The original formula (red can) has a rather fishy taste on the back of the tongue. It was so bad I actually felt guilty my baby was drinking it. The green can (no added DHA/ARA) actually tasted very good. It had just a faintly sweet milk taste! Other note worthy qualities: -Great mix-ability, some foam forms but doesn't need to be vigorously shaken. -No added DHA/ARA, this is important to me for taste but also because most formulas, even organic use hexane extracted DHA. Hexane is a neurotoxin that is a by-product of gasoline and petroleum. No DHA here, so no worries!! -The iron content seems to be easy on baby's belly-no constipation. I was worried about this as her previous European formula had a very low iron content of (0.8mg) this has (1.8mg.) -Non-GMO and Organic -I feel like I am getting a great value and great quality product that is double the amount of formula for the price of what I was purchasing previously to Earth's Best. Overall, I would highly recommend this formula

Organic and great for price!

My baby and my niece love this stuff. Me newborn tried different kinds of similac and enfamil but she was constantly crying and milk kept coming out of her nose. Once I switched to this, she’s so much more calm, sleeps well, and no more milk out the nose. Tastes good too! Yes, I tried it hehe. Please amazon, always have this available!
