Special medical purpose infant formula is a powdered or liquid formula designed for the nutritional needs of infants with special medical conditions such as special disorders, diseases or medical conditions. It is mainly aimed at infants aged 0 to 12 months, especially those infants whose nutritional needs cannot be met through ordinary breastfeeding or standard infant formula due to various reasons (such as premature birth, low birth weight, lactose intolerance, food protein allergy, etc.). This type of food is mainly in powdered or liquid form, which is convenient for parents to prepare and use according to the specific situation and needs of the baby. According to the special medical needs of different infants, the nutritional ingredients of special medical purpose infant formula are adjusted and optimized. For example, for infants with lactose intolerance, other carbohydrates may be used completely or partially to replace lactose in the formula; for infants with milk protein allergy, the formula may use partial or deep hydrolysis of milk protein to reduce the allergenicity of milk protein.
