Nutramigen with Enflora LGG
Nutramigen is a clinically-validated powerhouse for managing cow's milk allergy, but it scores poorly on ingredient quality due to the use of corn syrup solids as the primary carbohydrate and the inclusion of palm olein oil. While the extensively hydrolyzed protein and LGG probiotic are gold-standard for hypoallergenic needs, the base formulation relies on budget fillers rather than the lactose-based gold standard.
