Yes, however...: Breast milk is a far better food for babies than any formula but Bonna formula is safe for babies with G6PD. However, if you can not breast feed then organic infant formula is a far better choice- see https://www.hipp.ph/pediatric-nutrition/products/hipp-organic-infant-formula-0-6-months/hipp-organic-infant-formula-0-6-months/
