What's the better baby formula? water as first main ingredient or corn syrup as main ingredient? sounds sketchy. using syrup one now, read box, felt uneasy.

I : I would recommend using a water based formula. Corn syrup is concerning because for one it's artificial, secondly it can affect the things your child will want to eat (mainly a preference for sweets) also when corn syrup is consumed in large quantities over time it can lead to health problems in the future like childhood obesity. Continue asking questions about issues concerning your child. You are being a great mom by making sure you are informed. Take care.

Major brand: I would suggest a standard major brand rather than generic or store brand.

FDA monitored : There are dozens of commercial formulas but most are similar. They are not better than breast milk but try to mimic it. It can be found in ready to feed (they add water), or powder (you add water. The protein source varies from cow milk to soy bean or elemental proteins. The sugar content & source varies. All are monitored in the US by the FDA & must meet their standards for content.
