Question
Is it okay for babies to drink formula mixed with rice soup?
Answer
Babies should not use rice soup to mix formula, as the fat oxidase in rice soup can destroy the fat-soluble vitamin A in the formula, which may affect their growth and development and immunity over time. It is recommended to dissolve the formula with pure water and follow the instructions on the formula packaging. If the baby has been consuming formula mixed with rice soup for a year without any apparent health issues, there is no need to worry excessively, but it is advisable to avoid doing so in the future.
