A member asked:
My daughtet will be 12 months next week and currently drink similac sensitive what kinf of whole milk should i start her on(soy, 1%, 2%, or regular milk)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends on variables: If baby is really lactose intolerant, a lactose free or enzyme added milk would be appropriate.There is a commercially available regular milk with the enzyme added, such as lactaid, that would be preferred. We don't usually recommend the low percent fat milks before two.
