Allergen Info
Milk
What is this food?
Milk powder (infant formula powder). This is milk that has been dried into powder form, often used to prepare infant formula or milk-based drinks.
Why it matters to health
It provides energy (389 kcal per 100 g) and mainly carbohydrates (72.2 g) with sugars (57 g). It also has some fat (3 g) and sodium (188 mg). For babies and young kids, formula is designed to meet nutrition needs—so it matters that the right amount is prepared using the correct scoop-to-water ratio. For older kids and adults, frequent intake can add a lot of added sugars and calories, so it’s best to use it as intended and keep portions balanced within the day’s meals and snacks.
Healthier tips
- Follow the label instructions for mixing (correct scoop-to-water ratio) to avoid too concentrated or too diluted formula.
- If you’re using it as a drink for older kids/adults, keep it to a planned snack or part of a meal—avoid replacing whole meals regularly.
- Pair with fiber-rich foods (like fruits, oats, or whole grains) to balance the sweetness from sugar.
- Watch total daily intake: with 3 full meals plus 1–2 snacks, keep formula/milk powder drinks to one snack slot when applicable.
