Whole Nutrition Infant Formula
Only US formula with whole milk protein (not skim + oil). Contains lactoferrin—immune protein abundant in breast milk. Founded by former Enfamil executives who wanted cleaner formula.
Quality & Materials
Organic whole milk from grass-fed cows. Lactoferrin for immunity. No corn syrup, palm oil, or maltodextrin.
Evidence & Testing
Clinical trials compare outcomes directly to breastfed babies. Lactoferrin improves iron absorption and fights pathogens.
Brand Transparency
All sourcing disclosed. Third-party tested for 700+ contaminants.
Value Assessment
$39/24oz. One of most expensive but scientifically rigorous.
Why Not Alternatives?
Most formulas strip fat, add palm oil back. ByHeart keeps milk structure intact. Only formula in clinical trials since 2019 specifically designed to match breast milk outcomes.
