Commercial breast milk substitute products are a poor substitute for the real thing. After weaning there is no need for these products as a well balanced plant based diet is best with water to drink and a daily multivitamin with sufficient D3. That may not be the answer you seek but that’s my opinion. Best of luck!

Nido is basically powdered cow's milk. Fortified Nido has vitamins A and D added to the milk powder as well. This is not an infant formula and should not be used until after the child's first birthday. If the child is eating a nice variety of solid foods, you don't really need the fortified version, although a little extra vitamin D doesn't hurt. If toddler is picky eater, then suggest fortified
